lyrics

Sunflower

Don't it look like rain?
The way the clouds all hover here
Sad baby pain
Swoops in on me by wings of fear

That's alright by me
That's alright by me
As long as I have eyes to see

My sunflower
Pointing to the sun
My sunflower
Taller than the trees it seems

I step out my door
Try to hear the birdies sing
Either they don't sing no more
Or I can't hear them through this thundering

Thoughts in my mind
All of the time
Still somehow I will unwind

With my sunflower
Pointing to the sun
My sunflower
She's taller than the trees it seems

She's my sunflower
Little Himawari San
My sunflower
You're taller than the trees it seems

And when I feel my head it might explode
And I'm a stranger in my skin
So ashamed and so alone
I see her swaying in the wind
She smiles for me

Sometimes I can't tell
What is real and what's a dream
Am I beneath your spell
Or are you loving as you seem?

It tears me apart
It tears me apart
You're just so dear to my heart

You're my sunflower
Pointing to the sun
My sunflower
Taller than the trees it seems

You're my sunflower
My little Himawari San
My sunflower
You're taller than the trees it seems
