1998

[Verse 1] You wrote in my yearbook back in 1998 And now you're leaving town again on a flight to LGA Searching my house for things you left behind A half a cup of coffee and two empty bottles of wine Your blood on my sheets your hair on the floor A red ring on the counter from a glass of your Bordeaux [Chorus] So I'll see you in Portland I hope that you want to go With the boy from the heartland We'll take the dogs out on the boat But if it doesn't happen I just want you to know That I'll always be around when you come home [Verse 2] The subtle indentation on my bed where you would lay Paul McCartney's scrambled eggs feels just like yesterday I feel electric but how am I supposed to know If it's all just an illusion from the memories we form [Chorus] So I'll see you in Portland I hope that you want to go With the boy from the heartland We'll take the dogs out on the boat But if it doesn't happen I just want you to know That I'll always be around when you come home [Verse] I'm glad I didn't hurt you back in 1998 Maybe after all this time it might not be too late I don't know how to tell you but I hope that you can see Anything is possible not only in our dreams [Chorus] So I'll see you in Portland I hope that you want to go With the boy from the heartland We'll take the dogs out on the boat But if it doesn't happen I just want you to know That I'll always be around when you come home
