Rex Orange County Sunflower Lyrics

I want to know
Where I can go
When you're not around
And I'm feeling down

So won't you stay
For a moment
So I can say
I—

I need you so
'Cause right now you know,
That nothing is new
And I'm obsessed with you

Then I fell to the ground
And you smile at me and said

"I don't wanna see you cry.
You don't have to feel this emptiness."
She said, "I love you 'til the day that I die."
Well, maybe she's right

'Cause I don't wanna feel like I'm not me
And to be honest I don't even know why
I let myself get down in the first place

I'm tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflowers still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down down, do-do-down
Make it do-down, du du du
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

You know you need to get yourself to sleep and dream
And dream of you and I
There's no need to keep an open eye
I promise I'm the one for you
Just let me hold you in these arms tonight I'm lucky to be near
You can see it in my face
Back when I f*cked my shit up too many times
Why would I let myself get down in the first place

I'm tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflowers still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down down, do-do-down
Make it do-down, du du du
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

And so she sat me down and told me that I didn't have to cry
Said I didn't need to get down and feel empty inside
And told me that she love me for as long as she's alive
And, well, maybe she's right,
'Cause I hate it when I feel like I'm not me
See, I honestly, don't even know why
I—I honestly don't even know why

I'm tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflowers still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down down, do-do-down
Make it do-down, du du du
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes
