Portland Lyrics

Started off in Sharon

Heading westbound through Purdue

I wish we detoured south to New Orleans

One hundred thousand miles, and still my destination's you

Winding down the highways to our dreams

'Cause you are prettier than Portland

Lovelier than Los Angeles in June

More beautiful than Brooklyn

And sweeter than Seattle when it's blue

Colorado, California

Durango to Santa Cruz

From Boulder on through Salt Lake in the snow

I've spent too long in the fast lane

And I always miss the view

So hold my hand and we can take it slow

'Cause you are prettier than Portland

Lovelier than Los Angeles in June

More beautiful than Brooklyn

And sweeter than Seattle when it's blue

You drive me crazy baby

And I've been feeling lately

There's nowhere else I'd be

Then riding shotgun wherever you please

In every condition

I had a premonition

What papa said was true

Forever's just another word for loving you

'Cause you are prettier than Portland

Lovelier than Los Angeles in June

More beautiful than Brooklyn

And sweeter than Seattle when it's blue
