    Lyrics
    Postcard From Portugal
    By John Moossa

    On the wall behind the bar at the Sidewalk Café
    There’s a postcard from Portugal
    Kneeling in the sand on a beach far away
    A brown haired local girl
    Venus’ child swept upon the shore
    Come all you angels sing
    She’s clad in a garment
    So simple and pure
    She’s not wearing anything

    Sometimes when I sit and stare for awhile I notice it happening
    The girl at the bar at the Sidewalk Café appears to be beckoning
    A glimpse of heaven at the end of the day my vision starts to swirl
    As I feel myself being carried away by that brown haired local girl

    I’m a thousand miles away on a beach
    Take another pass that bottle down
    Keep you wisdom to yourself now brother
    This is a poor man’s way to get out of this town

    Your feeling crazy from time to time
    Don’t think you’ve lost your mind
    Cause you’ve just had it about up to here
    Working that daily grind
    Late winter’s night at the Sidewalk café
    Potential for spring looms near
    Your distant love could be waiting for you
    Beneath a barroom mirror
    CHORUS

    Get out of this town before I fade away now my chances are improving
    But there’s something I got to do while this heart of mine is still moving
