Sunrise

Sun rising in the east as I drive
Heading west toward my home.
Sunrise in my rearview mirror
As I drive on Attwater avenue.
Sunrise over the Gulf of Mexico
As I drive on Seawall Boulevard.
Sunrise over the causeway
As I drive over after work.
The sun rising in my rearview mirror
As I drive home, always in my rearview mirror.
The only thing I want to see
In my rearview mirror as
I drive home is the sun rising.
The only thing I want to see
Before me as I drive home
Is a clear and empty road.
