Lyrics
Back In Oregon Like trying to find A missing heartbeat in synchopated time Was the way you looked When you stumbled down those stairs. You were looking at me As if you wanted more than my company. For you the need was casual. For me it seemed so rare. Though I was shy, you let me believe That you'd leave the one you were with to be with me. And we were going all night Until the night was gone. But in the morning you decided to go, To go with your boyfriend to Mexico While I was left with the memories of you Back in Oregon. All through the night You were telling me everything felt so right. You kept me going for more Like no one else had done before. And when we were through You kinda floored me when you said, "I love you". And I was foolish to say the same Before you walked out that door. But in the morning you decided to go, To soak up the sun in Mexico. Leaving the rain to soak up the Tiajuana sun. But it's not worth crying about. I realized there was some doubt About us together Back in Oregon. But don't bother looking for me When things go wrong like I said they would be. Remember you were the one who lied Back in Oregon.
