Miles of highway poppies, a stretch of maybe flowers
Past Signal Hill a ways
We were parked and searching
For a hubcap rolling into the fields of thorns
Although we couldn't see a thing that night
Stars still shone
In their slowness
And their slowness
Took us by surprise
If I never told you how you helped to rescue
The car and all inside
Remember roads were steep and
You and I went sliding down the grade from Gate's Pass
You asleep and me behind the wheel hovering
In that slowness
And that slowness
Has never gone away
(VERSE chords) x2
Although we couldn't see a thing that night
Stars still shone, stars still shone, stars still shone,
In their slowness, in their slowness, in their slowness...
And their slowness
Never gone awa-a-ay
