Sunshine in My Rearview (versie 2)

Verse

Barefoot on the dashboard, windows down like nothing's wrong

Radio crackling static through a song I used to sing along

Your number in my phone lit up at 4 AM

I let it go to voicemail just so I'd know you're still somewhere close

Old high school parking lot empty except for taillights flicker

Every streetlight's a memory, every mile a little bolder

Pre-Chorus

Maybe letting go is how the sky turns gold

Maybe moving on was worth the fight to hold

Chorus

Sunshine in my rearview, turning into gold

Everything you said still echoes but I'm walking home

No more chasing down that road we never rode together now

Sunshine in my rearview, I ain't mad, I'm better now

Verse 2

Found your old hoodie folded up behind the driver's seat

Kept it anyway just so I'd have something left to keep

Mama asked me why I'm smiling when I'm clearly sad

I told her this is freedom, this is where the happy begins

Every mile marker counting down a whole chapter done

Some scars turn into constellations once you've won

Pre-Chorus

Maybe letting go is how the sky turns gold

Maybe moving on was worth the fight to hold

Chorus

Sunshine in my rearview, turning into gold

Everything you said still echoes but I'm walking home

No more chasing down that road we never rode together now

Sunshine in my rearview, I ain't mad, I'm better now

Bridge

Maybe I was scared to move on because it meant surrender

Now the highway's my altar, every curve a lesson learned

I don't need a promise written down to feel this light

Every good goodbye turns into gold at the right time

Chorus

Sunshine in my rearview, turning into gold

Everything you said still echoes but I'm walking home

No more chasing down that road we never rode together now

Sunshine in my rearview, I ain't mad, I'm better now
