The National in Lisbon // I love Portugal

'I can see the glowing lights
I can see them every night
Really not that far away
I could be there in a day.'

'Venom radio and venom television
I'm afraid of everyone.'

'Meet me in the stairwell in a second
For a glass of gin
Nobody else will be there then.'

'I don't need any help to be breakable, believe me
I know nobody else who can laugh along to any kind of joke
I won't need any help to be lonely when you leave me.'

'it all catches up to me, all the time.'

'I'm so surprised you want to dance with me now
I was just getting used to living life without you around.'

'Let’s go wait out in the fields with the ones we love.'

'We live on coffee and flowersTry not to wonder what the weather will be.'

'I didn't understand then
I don't understand now.'

I love Portugal

This is Lisbon.

He just wanted us to have a photo with the fishing rod, or do the fishing with him... it was tricky communication business trying to workout which. 

Sitting out the front of one of my favourite cafes, they had blueberry bagels and a view.
Enough said.

Street art guy.

He showed me where the ice-cream was.

here's to looking up.

"ice-cream is gonna save the day."
