Lyrics
You wanted Sunflowers for our yellow house
To bring us confidence and joy
The petals twisting like spinning orbs
You always saw more than I saw
The painful struggle with poverty and failure
Troubled kindness and sinful doubts
And you will fly-y, higher than us all
Or you will fa-all in darkness and despair
If you dare, how could I know
You would do both
Wheat fields in patchwork of mania and mauve
Warmth of the cafe in the night
Stillness and madness swirling inside
Reflecting in the starry night
Leave behind the tattered remnants of convention
Cast your mind beyond your raging doubts
You will fly, higher than us all
Or you will fall in darkness and despair
If you dare, how could I know
You would do both
Temper and tempest in our yellow house
Accusations flying through the open door
rampage and ruin and running in the night
a bloody harvest red and raw
complex riot of tangled expectations
capture your demons in your bold hand
And you will fly, higher than us all
Or you will fall in darkness and despair
If you dare, how could I know
You would do both
