Sunflower

Like a sea of gold outside my garden gate

Behind the house that I grew up in, a beautiful escape

We talked for hours and hours and look up back the sky

I had all the questions but you could tell me why

You told me sunflowers stare at the sun

and how the milky way is a galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent

and you showed me I was wrong

but where should the sunflower stare

now that you're gone

Autumn rain began to wash away the dust

I'd never thought the gold could turn to rust

When morning, they were gone and I could cry

Cause you're not here to tell me why

You told me sunflowers stare at the sun

and how the milky way is a galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent

and you showed me I was wrong

but where should this sunflower stare

now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

You told me sunflowers stare back at the sun

and how the milky way is the galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent

and you showed me I was wrong

but where should this sunflower stare

now that you're gone

Now that you're gone
