Lyrics: John Maher/Jordan Sinclair
Music: John Maher/Jordan Sinclair
Drove up the coast just to find you
From Brookings and places in between
Chorus
Poets can’t describe
the color of your eyes
in the mist just before the rain
Would it come as no surprise
would it shock you if I said
leaving Oregon just brought me pain
Just a vow to never leave you
I’m never cruel and never mean
Giving it all just to please you
I’m your devoted and loving Eugene
Drove up the coast just to find you
From Brookings and places in between
Poets can’t describe
the color of your eyes
in the mist just before the rain
Would it come as no surprise
would it shock you if I said
leaving Oregon just brought me pain
I sent flowers ahead to remind you
And the beauty can hardly be seen
There’s fear in the hearts of the wicked
Loving thoughts of you from Eugene
Drove up the coast just to find you
From Brookings and places in between
poets can’t describe
the color of your eyes
in the mist just before the rain
would it come as no surprise
would it shock you if I said
leaving Oregon just brought me pain
