Darren Crossey - Portland Town lyrics



I see the light across the bay,
I see the light not far away,
When I hear music all around,
I'm gettin' close to Portland Town,
Oh, Mother, won't you make my bed,
I see the light of Portland Head,
I see the light, I'm comin' 'round,
I'm comin' home to Portland Town.

Some years ago, out on my own,
I set a course for parts unknown,
Leavin' behind both friend and foe,
Needin' to find what I've come to know,
I've a watched the islands fade away,
And bid farewell to Casco Bay,
Though it's been years and years since then,
My heart has brought me home again.

I see the light across the bay,
I see the light not far away,
When I hear music all around,
I'm gettin' close to Portland Town,
Oh, Mother, won't you make my bed,
I see the light of Portland Head,
I see the light, I'm comin' 'round,
I'm comin' home to Portland Town.

Of all the places I could go,
She's still the fairest port I know,
She works the sea and tills the farms,
And holds her children in her arms,
No place has got a prouder past,
Here comes the future full at last,
Here comes that beacon 'cross the sky,
And when I hold my head up high...

I see the light across the bay,
I see the light not far away,
When I hear music all around,
I'm gettin' close to Portland Town,
Oh, Mother, won't you make my bed,
I see the light of Portland Head,
I see the light, I'm comin' 'round,
I'm comin' home to Portland Town.

I'm comin' home to Portland Town.
