There were still entire empires of California highway
I wanted to share with you
There were still foothills and fires
And breakdowns on the runways
I wanted to run with you
Lost stars are coming on
Lost causes calling on
I was second college bound
And dreaming of what could be
Wanting to move with you
Watching concrete island towns
And skyways full of palm trees
And walking along with you
Lost stars are coming on
Lost causes calling on
Lost stars are coming on
Lost causes calling on
I found you like a culinary gem
In a stucco-pink strip mall
I found you as the curtain's coming down
On a melancholy romcom
I found you in California
