[Intro] Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight [Harmony 1] If Portland feels too far I’ll meet you where the salt winds are Pick a star, and hold it light Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight [Verse 1] You wore your red raincoat By the river and the food cart glow I said, “Baby, take my hand” Let the freeway fade where the black pines stand [Pre-Chorus] Drive west when the sky turns blue I got a place with a view for two The tide keeps time, the moon says wait We can start where the day won’t break [Chorus] Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Put your wish in the dark and let it fly Pick a star, pick a star I’ll be yours where the cold waves are [Harmony 2] Pick a star, don’t look away I’m the one who’s gonna stay Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight And I’ll meet you in that silver light [Verse 2] We crossed the bridge with the windows down Left our old maps in the edge of town At Cannon Beach, you laughed so bright Like the moon had dropped and kissed your eyes [Pre-Chorus] Drive west when the sky turns blue I got a place with a view for two The tide keeps time, the moon says wait We can start where the day won’t break [Chorus] Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Put your wish in the dark and let it fly Pick a star, pick a star I’ll be yours where the cold waves are [Harmony 3] Pick a star, let it burn for us Over the cliffs and the driftwood dust Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Hold me close till the morning light [Verse 4] Back in Portland, your hand in mine Coffee gone cold in the corner light But I still hear that ocean call Like your name written on it all [Pre-Chorus] Drive west when the sky turns blue I got a place with a view for two The tide keeps time, the moon says wait We can start where the day won’t break [Chorus] Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Put your wish in the dark and let it fly Pick a star, pick a star I’ll be yours where the cold waves are [Verse] So if the road gets long again And the rain starts talking through the vents Just look up, I’ll be there One bright wish in the salty air [Bridge] And if the night asks what we are Tell it this: we chose our star Not a map, not a sign Just your hand and mine [Outro] Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight Pick a star over the Oregon coast tonight
