Cover art for Edmonton lyrics by Rural Alberta Advantage, The

I live in LA which i kinda hate it but everything that means anything to me is here except the only thing that matters, a young lady named Lemon. I spent 10 years with her, it has been 3 years since. She stayed in Portland and i felt.

Some time ago we were feeling trapped in number of ways, and i suggested moving away form LA. The next day we quit our jobs and filled the car to the brim with nick nacks and treasures we had collected over the last decade. We drove to Portland, both of our liscences were suspended.... and of course we go pulled over. The cops impounded our car in Medford and we were stuck there for 3 days. So everything we own is in an impound lot somewhere, and we are held up at a motel 6 until her sisters friend could drive out and get the car for us. We hopped in the car and roll the dice a second time. As we come into Portland for the first time, the sun was just about to set and i looked over at Lemon, the sun rested on her in such a way that i would have sworn that she was literally glowing. Then she smiled and was certain that she was. It was the freest I have ever felt.

We lived in the car outside a Fred Meyers for the next three weeks spending most of our time hanging out at the library looking for work. Follow by the poorest three years of our live. Nothing could stop me from being happy when i am with her.

And so now i am here crying to this song, thinking about running away again... but what will i do if she never.....

Memory
