Sunflower by Pat Orchard Lyrics

Well its sad to see you so low
Thinking how you used to grow
As you tried to touch the sky
Well you failed but still the same
I never find any blame
'Cos I know how hard you tried
The growing season is so short
And those that stand out
Are first to be caught
But I never thought I'd see
All your beauty gone to seed
Like a Sunflower
Like a Sunflower
You were some flower
You were some flower
And how each day I feel such guilt
I have to say I watched you wilt
Full knowing what it means
But who knows what we'll find
When we leave our roots behind
And fall victim to all our dreams
You lived a life of pleasure and pain
You had your face in the sun
But your roots in the rain
But I'd never thought I'd see
All your beauty gone to seed
Like a Sunflower
Like a Sunflower
You were some flower
You were some flower
Yes you were
You grew for me
A little too fast
Wild and free
Sunflower
Sunflower
