Like a sea of gold outside my garden gate

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

We'd talk for hours and hours and look up at 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 the galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent, you showed me I was wrong

But where should this sunflower stare, now that you're gone?

Autumn rain began to wash away the dust

I never thought that gold could turn to rust

One 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 the galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent, 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 at the sun

And how the Milky Way is the galaxy called home

I thought the moon was a crescent, you showed me I was wrong

But where should this sunflower stare, now that you're gone?

Now that you're gone
