Sunflower

Sunflower 1999 (Liverpool)

Lyric
My sunflowers didn't flourish that year.
I planted them in spring kept them safe from sun and rain.

I tried to help you thrive but the conditions didn't satisfy your unique and particular need for the simple sun and rain; you see without these certain things it will drive you to insane and never flourish the same again.


I learnt from my mistakes and corrected your new place.

I planted my sunflowers in spring Directly in the sun and in reach of rain. now I have learnt new ways and needs she will flourish again.
