Sunset Eyes

Verse 1
Drove past the diner where we used to meet
Your old Ford parked on the side of that street
Sky was burnin’, sun settin’ low
I swear our song was on the radio

Pre-Chorus
Every corner feels like you’d appear
But I’m just chasin’ smoke in the rear mirror

Chorus
Sunset skies, we were wild and free
Dreamin’ big with a tank on E
Laughin’ loud like the world was ours
You kissed me hard under those Tupelo stars
Now it’s headlights, dark roads and late-night bars
I’d give anything for those back street skies
Starin’ at you with those sunset eyes

Verse 2
I keep mistakin’ strangers standin’ in line
For the girl who stole this heart of mine
Every lost memory cuts me deep
Honey, there are some nights I never sleep

Pre-Chorus
Every mile I drive I swear that you are near
Guess I’m chasin’ smoke in the rear mirror

Chorus
Sunset skies, we were wild and free
Dreamin’ big with a tank on E
Laughin’ loud like the world was ours
You kissed me hard under those Tupelo stars
Now it’s headlights, dark roads and late-night bars
I’d give anything for those back street skies
Starin’ at you with those sunset eyes

Bridge
Windows down, I still hear your name
Jenny, I know it just ain’t the same
Time moves on, but my heart just stays
Where we let it go that balmy summer day

Final Chorus
Sunset skies, we were wild and free
Dreamin’ big with a tank on E
Laughin’ loud like the world was ours
You kissed me hard under those Tupelo stars
Now it’s headlights, dark roads and late-night bars
I’d give anything for those back street skies
Starin’ at you with those sunset eyes

Outro
Still chasin’ those sunset eyes…
I’ll be chasin’ those back street skies…
