”
[Intro]
Yeah…
PNW rain on the glass, Gulf Coast in my blood.
[Verse 1]
Gray sky hangin’ low over evergreen lines,
Cold mist on the mirror, but you’re still on my mind.
I’ve worked steel in the daylight, sparks cuttin’ the dark,
But the only real heat is wherever you are.
Coffee on the dash, boots on the floor,
City moves slow when the heart wants more.
They say “welcome home,” but it don’t feel true—
Not till the world looks like it does next to you.
[Pre-Chorus]
’Cause the weather can change, and the miles can bend,
But I know what I need when the day don’t end.
[Chorus]
You’re my sunshine in the PNW,
Lightin’ up the rain when it’s comin’ down rude.
I’m a Gulf Coast cowboy, salt air in my veins,
But you pull me steady through the Portland-gray days.
If the whole sky breaks and the cold wind rolls through,
I’m alright—long as I’m holdin’ you.
Yeah, you’re my sunshine in the PNW.
[Verse 2]
Neon on wet streets, taillights burnin’ red,
Same old long week, but you’re up in my head.
I’ve seen storm tides rise, seen hard times hit,
But I don’t fold easy — that’s just how I’m built.
Let ’em talk weather, let ’em call it “gloom,”
I’ve got a fire that fits in a two-step room.
One slow song, one smile from you,
And I forget what the clouds were tryin’ to do.
[Pre-Chorus]
I don’t need the sun if you’re here in my arms,
You turn a cold place warm.
[Chorus]
You’re my sunshine in the PNW,
Lightin’ up the rain when it’s comin’ down rude.
I’m a Gulf Coast cowboy, salt air in my veins,
But you pull me steady through the Portland-gray days.
If the whole sky breaks and the cold wind rolls through,
I’m alright—long as I’m holdin’ you.
Yeah, you’re my sunshine in the PNW.
[Bridge]
And if I get to ramblin’, if the road starts callin’,
You know I come back — I don’t love halfway.
I’ve been tough, I’ve been tired, I’ve been worn at the seams,
But you’re the best part of every part of me.
So let it rain… let it pour…
You’re the reason I don’t mind it anymore.
[Final Chorus]
You’re my sunshine in the PNW,
Turnin’ hard days soft with the things you do.
I’m a Gulf Coast cowboy, built tough, built true,
But I go quiet when I’m close to you.
If the whole sky breaks and the cold wind rolls through,
I’m alright—long as I’m holdin’ you.
Yeah, you’re my sunshine in the PNW.
[Outro]
Rain can fall—
But you still shine.
