ABOUT/MEANING: 'Sunday Driver' reflects the quiet contentment of being with someone when the destination no longer matters. It’s a portrait of peace - of choosing "togetherness" not for the thrill, but for the stillness it offers. Against the emotional turbulence of earlier chapters, this song becomes a breath of calm: a reminder that connection doesn’t have to be dramatic to be meaningful. After years of chasing, falling, and rebuilding, the boys* embrace a version of love that is simple, mutual, and grounded in the present. Sometimes, "together" is just knowing someone’s beside you - even in silence.

LYRICS - ENGLISH TRANSLATION (translations by @translatingTXT)
Sunday for, Sunday for us
Yeah, yeah, alright
Woah
A soothingly warm sun
I start the engine, revving with excitement
Your favorite playlist’s ready to go, okay
I’ll come pick you up
The moment I see you smiling at me
Our drive slowly begins
You greet a cute dog stick its head out
From the car passing us by
It's like Sunday for, Sunday for us
Even time moves slowly, slowly
The scenery that feels within reach, and the dreamlike us
I take in every little moment deeply in my eyes
La, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la
Just two of us
Sunday for, Sunday for us
Gently gliding above the clouds
Our own kind of driving
Shall we go to the beach? (Go now)
So what it’s far? (Don’t care)
In my right hand (My hand)
All I need is your hand
This car turns into our own coinless karaoke room
Even if the lyrics are all wrong, it’s just right
As long as the two of us are together like this
Every day feels like Sunday
No need to rush, let's take it slow
After all, my destination is everywhere by your side
It's like Sunday for, Sunday for us
Even time moves slowly, slowly
The scenery that feels within reach, and the dreamlike us
I take in every little moment deeply in my eyes
Drawn by the dazzling sunset
We drift off course, arriving somewhere new
Now I know, even a wrong turn
Feels like a scene from a movie (feels like)
It’s like Sunday for, Sunday for us
A relaxed mood that feels Sunday-like (unhurried)
The scenery that feels within reach, and the dreamlike us
I take in every little moment deeply in my eyes
La, la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
La-la-la (Just two of us)
Sunday for, Sunday for us
It doesn’t get better than this
Our own kind of driving
Helpful Context (Album Summary): ‘The Star Chapter: Together’ is the emotional culmination of TXT’s discography-long narrative: a final chapter that doesn’t just celebrate reunion, but explores what it means to sustain it. Where ‘The Star Chapter: Sanctuary’ marked healing and return, ‘The Star Chapter: Together’ captures what follows: the strength to walk forward, side by side. The boys*, once fractured by fear, time, and uncertainty, now choose each other again - not as the same people they once were, but as those who have grown, endured, and found their way back. Each track explores a different facet of what it means to be together, showing how relationships deepen and evolve when nurtured over time. The stars that once symbolized distant dreams now light the way toward a future built on trust, belief, and a promise kept. Here, love is no longer just comfort - it’s resistance: a quiet act of defiance against isolation, fear, and the passing of time. After seasons of separation and longing, “tomorrow” is no longer a far-off dream to wait for - it’s something you choose, again and again, with the people who matter. And after everything, the five boys have finally arrived at tomorrow, together.
Helpful Context (Album Series Summary): The Star Chapter series brings TXT’s discography-long journey to a close, revisiting the promise first made in their debut EP, 'The Dream Chapter: Star': five boys beneath the night sky, bound by a shared dream and a vow to meet again. But now, they return not as wide-eyed dreamers, but as individuals shaped by distance, disillusionment, and growth. What once felt boundless and full of wonder now carries the weight of memory and time. Still, they come back - back to each other, to the stars, and to the promise that endured even when belief faltered. This series explores how youthful dreams evolve into enduring bonds, and how connection, once fractured, can be renewed through understanding. Through themes of love, reconciliation, and resilience, The Star Chapters depict not untouched joy, but peace earned through hardship - where unity is not a given, but a choice. Their “tomorrow” has finally arrived: not as a fantasy, but as a reality shaped by trust, loss, and the decision to move forward together.
*In the context of TXT’s discography, the term ‘boy’/‘boys’ are used to represent both the members themselves as well as serve as generalized protagonists embodying the universal experiences of youth.
