Sunriser Lyrics by Lee Brice
Hey sunriser
Today’s coming at you a half a billion miles an hour
Whether you’re waking up or just pulled an all-nighter
I tip my hat to you
Truck drivers, firefighters, cut-the-neon-closing-timers
Double shifting, double shooting, trying to come down from the first time
Getting-highers, yeah, too much sleep just ain’t how we were wired
It don’t matter which end of the candle that you burn
If you want to see it it’s something you’ve got to earn
Whatever it is you’re chasing that’s setting your heart on fire
However the morning finds you, I hope it finds you well
Sunriser, no-sleep-survivors, first-time-heartbroke-cryers
Changing diapers, ride-or-die-ers squeezing pliers
We can all act like we ain’t tired
But the truth is we’re all liars
It don’t matter which end of the candle that you burn
If you’re up to see it, well, then it’s one that you’ve earned
Whatever it is you’re chasing setting your heart on fire
However the morning finds you I hope it finds you well
Sunriser
Sunriser
Sunriser
A little older, little wiser
Last-minute-red-eye-flyer
Get off the plane, in the truck, pull down the visor
Can’t wait to get home to surprise her
And kiss my little ear-to-ear-smiler
Sunriser
My little sunriser
Weekend drunk-dialers, college kids, and old timers
Ain’t-been-out-in-a-while-ers, wake-up-in-jail-first-timers
Spirits that run a little bit wilder
Two-job single-mom fighters, first-time-love-finders
Deer stand, duck-blind-hiders, farmers, morning-DJ-radio-dialers
Backwoods moonshiners
Too-much-on-their-mind-ers, having-the-time-of-their-life-ers
Sunrisers
