A Moment Beside The Road

When whispers of the night draw near

I feel the need to pull off here

With stars that shine in darker skies

At home, they never seem so clear

Against a field of fireflies

There’s twinkling in lows and highs

Against my shoulder lies her head

And upward goes our blurry eyes

The thicker clouds, away they fled

And city lights, the sky has shed

But while we gaze we ever know

The journey ever lies ahead

The way the stars do seem to glow

Should make us stop and see them show

We stand here but a moment though

We stood there just a moment though
