Portugal The Man

Telling Tellers Tell Me

Portugal The Man


Summer came and I lost my shoes
Purple gold linens, pressed them down in the basement
And if you don't know or see them clouds
Will step to the sky and wind down
(Tell me what you know, tell me what we get
Tell me where we go then tell me when you come back around)

Calm will find your soul
Those tired lonely lips dragged him down to the train tracks
Calm will find your soul
Left them purple gold lids sittin' down in the basement
Calm will find your soul
And if we die here will we ever be back again?
Calm will find your soul
Dawn was likely lined in the coming of men
That shuffled, slithered legs 'til they knew how to stand

Every time I grow I know I'll never change
Because the liver tree sways, but I knows he'll never find me
I know my problems and know where they lay
(Tell me what you know, tell me what we get
Tell me where we go then tell me when you come back around)

Calm will find your soul
Those tired lonely lips dragged him down to the train tracks
Calm will find your soul
Left them purple gold lids sittin' down in the basement
Calm will find your soul
And if we die here will we ever be back again?
Calm will find your soul
Dawn was likely lined in the coming of men
That shuffled, slithered legs 'til they knew how to stand

My brother's busy laughing at the end of the hall
Said: That man's not a doctor if he cures no cancer
Placed in the back where there are no dancers
Crooked steps, diamonds and a bag housing answers

I step to sky and wind down
(Tell me what you know, tell me what we get
Tell me where we go then tell me when you come back around)

Calm will find your soul
Those tired lonely lips dragged him down to the train tracks
Calm will find your soul

Calm will find your soul
And if we die here will we ever be back again?
Calm will find your soul
Dawn was likely lined in the coming of men
That shuffled, slithered legs 'til they knew how to stand
