Sun To Me Lyrics

5:36 AM, I was 'bout to start my day
But she lay in there across me so I stayed anyway
Arms tied, legs numb and wrapped around my knees
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah you're the sun to me

I don't recall what you were wearing on the first night we met
Besides the subtle clouds around you from my last cigarette
And you come from a good place with a happy family
Only bad you ever done was to see the good in me

But I've been living, waiting on the day
That the good Lord willing send you out my way
I've seen hard times, bad luck and all that's in-between
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah you're the sun to me

And I remember being younger, and my mother told me truth
"Find someone who grows flowers in the darkest parts of you
Take heed when things get hard and don't you ever turn around
You'll find someone, someday, somewhere that'll grow you to the clouds" oh

And you walked me home that evening when I could barely walk
And you spoke to me so sweetly on the days I couldn't talk
And now I'm seeing clearly and I'm growing up so free
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah you're the sun to me

But I've been living, waiting on the day
That the good Lord willing send you out my way
I've seen hard times, bad luck and all that's in-between
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah you're the sun to me
Sweetest of the sunflowers, yeah you're the sun to me
