Plagioclase Highway

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a road I still remember Winding through the mountain pines Headlights cutting through December On a cold Flagstaff night Two students with a heart full of wonder Sparks before we knew the signs [Chorus] Through the snow, through the years Through the laughter and the tears We never let go, we never gave in Lovies, my love, till the very end Hand in hand, side by side You're my paradise, my guiding light [Verse 2] Plagioclase highway, you called it Twinning striations, I replied A geologist's kind of romance Written in the stones and sky Stuck in the snow in old Gwenny Dawn brought a kiss I'll never deny [Chorus] Through the snow, through the years Through the laughter and the tears We never let go, we never gave in Lovies, my love, till the very end Hand in hand, side by side You're my paradise, my guiding light [Bridge] Bat out of hell on the radio Sharing the night, just you and me Betsy rolling down some lonesome road Forty-seven years, still you and me [Verse 3] Jim Bender, my gentleman You stood beside me through it all Every winter, every summer Every rise and every fall Still I'd choose you, Jim, tomorrow Still I'd answer every call [Chorus] Through the snow, through the years Through the laughter and the tears We never let go, we never gave in Lovies, my Jim, till the very end Hand in hand, side by side You're my paradise, my guiding light [Outro] On that plagioclase highway You're still the one I'd choose Lovies, my Jim, always
