Sunflower
The Traceelords Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

And if you say you want me, too
I'd like to believe you
Because I love you
Because I love you

And if you think you love me, too
I just wanna hold you
Because I need you

Because I need you

Ooh, that's all I wanna do
And every time I see sunflowers
They make me think of you
I don't need no roses
They just fail compared to you

If you think you don't love me back
I just wanna know
Because I love you

But if you think you love me, too
Don't hesitate
Because I need you
Baby, I need you

Is this the way to your heart
The right thing to do?
Is this the time for a start
Just for me and you?

I would do anything

Just to see you smile
Just like the sunflowers in my mind
