Drivin' Into The Sun Lyrics - Sherrié Austin

(Georgia Middleman/Sherri Austin) 

It was as if all the trees that late September 

Couldn't bear to let go of their leaves 

And I knew just how they felt 

Was having trouble letting go myself 

Cause love at seventeen 

It's like driving into the sun 

With no sunglasses on 

It was shining just for us 

And we knew that it would always be 

But when I think about it now 

Every sunrise must go down 

Back then I thought you were the only one 

It's funny what you can't see 

Driving into the sun 

It was the summer and time was in a hurry 

And we couldn't grow up fast enough 

And in the back seat of your car 

I gave you more than just my heart 

And we swore that it was love 

It's like driving into the sun 

With no sunglasses on 

It was shining just for us 

And we knew that it would always be 

But when I think about it now 

Every sunrise must go down 

Back then I thought you were the only one 

It's funny what you can't see 

Driving into the sun 

Oh you were such a beautiful mistake 

What I wouldn't give to love again 

Like I didn't know a heart could break 

It's like driving into the sun 

With no sunglasses on 

It was shining just for us 

And we knew that it would always be 

But when I think about it now 

Every sunrise must go down 

Back then I thought you were the only one 

It's funny what you can't see 

Driving into the sun 

Oh.. It's funny what you can't see 

Driving into the sun
