Take my hand and I will
Lead you through a memory
Where the street was all
Support and we were family
Such a family
There beneath the cliffside
Portland Road now full of ghosts
Portland Road
Where we settled
Portland Road
Da Vischeto
Take my word for it
The food would make you born again
And the music of the chip shop
That you'd revel in
And it would lift your heart
To see a world of smiling eyes
The rhythm of a sweeter time
Portland Road
Where we settled
Portland Road
Da Vischeto
And Spring Gardens is beckoning
Making light of the sunshine
As it courses through the bay
To the promenade
Now your carriage takes you
To the hillside cemetery
Where the yew grows tall
And all around are family
Such a family
There beneath a grief that settles
Heavy on our foreign soil
Portland Road
Where we settled
Portland Road
Da Vischeto
Portland Road
Ti aspetto
Portland Road
Da lontano
