“Back to the woods,” songwriter
Greg Brown writes in “Eugene” about a road trip he takes to the Northwest. “A
dog is bound to find me sooner or/Later. Sometimes you gotta not look too hard –
just let the/Dog find you.” Yet earlier in the song he writes, “Sometimes you
have to go/Look for your life.”
Yes, life is such a dance, isn’t it – of knowing
when to look….but also knowing when to just relax and let the dog do the work
of finding us.
