Petals

verse one

There once laid a sunflower seed
I watched it bloom throughout the spring
And when the rain turned the sky gray
It steered me towards the sun's bright rays

But April showers weren't the end
The sun left when winter began
Now we face the freezing storms
As my flower nears its life span

chorus
One by one, petals float away
Each one with a dear memory
I leave trails of rain everyday
But the sun took another lane

verse two
Life has turned to an endless night
But my sunflower still shines bright
It knows it won't see day again
But it wants me to when this ends

chorus
One by one, petals float away
Each one with a dear memory
I leave trails of rain everyday
But the sun took another lane

verse three
My flower leaves me with a seed
That's watered by my tears
So it can bloom inside of me
And when storms fill the sky
I know I'll be alright
'Cause they can't douse my light

outro
I watch the petals float away
And though they're drenched by pouring rain
I know the skies will clear someday
And they'll drift to a better place
