The car in front of me - Luke Bryan

Homecoming parade, you were the queen
I was ridin' right behind you with the rest of the team
Saw my ring on your finger
As you waved to the crowd
I didn't know a second stringer
Could ever be so proud

The car in front of me
Was carryin'
What I love more than anything
My sweetest dream
Was in the car in front of me

On Wednesday nights, we'd meet at church
You'd bring the kids and I'd come straight from work
Going home I'd read their lips
Through the window of your van
As they sang "Jesus loves me" I thought God I'm a lucky man

The car in front of me
Was carryin'
What I love more than anything
My sweetest dream
Was in the car in front of me

Even after what the doctor said
You were strong and you believed
And you held us all together
Through one more spring

Their little hands
Held onto mine
As we sat in that backseat
With tears in our eyes
A long line of headlights
Strangers stopped along the road
No, Monday wasn't meant for wearin' Sunday clothes

The car in front of me
Was carryin'
What I love more than anything
My sweetest dream
Was in the car in front of me
