Sunup on I-5 (Version 2)

Intro

Dawn comes up over the engine block

Verse

Pillowcase in a grocery sack

Caffeine drips down the dashboard crack

Sneakers still warm from last night's floor

Sunrise catches the salt stains on the car door

Pre-Chorus

So what do we do with this open road

And the miles that we've never known

Do we roll the windows or keep them tight

Or let the daylight burn our doubts away tonight

Chorus

We're chasing sunup, we're chasing gold

Sunlight climbing down the 5 corridor

Every shadow holds a brand new name

Sunup on I-5

Racing the horizon just to stay awake

Sunup on I-5

Every highway's got an open end and a way

Verse

Gasoline smells like a promise made

Wiper fluid dripping off the blade

Headlights still humming from the night before

Morning traffic starts to get some score

Pre-Chorus

So what do we do with this open road

And the miles that we've never known

Do we roll the windows or keep them tight

Or let the daylight burn our doubts away tonight

Chorus

We're chasing sunup, we're chasing gold

Sunlight climbing down the 5 corridor

Every shadow holds a brand new name

Sunup on I-5

Racing the horizon just to stay awake

Sunup on I-5

Every highway's got an open end and a way

Bridge

Maybe the dark was never the real test

Maybe this is just where we find our rest

Every sunrise gets to say goodbye

To every shadow that stood in our light

Chorus

We're chasing sunup, we're chasing gold

Sunlight climbing down the 5 corridor

Every shadow holds a brand new name

Sunup on I-5

Racing the horizon just to stay awake

Sunup on I-5

Every highway's got an open end and a way

Outro

Sunup on I-5

Gold in every ray
