Rex Orange County
Sunflower (Live at Radio City Music Hall)
[Intro]
Would you be willing to give me
All the energy in your body right now, right here?
Well, that's good
Because I have loads of built-up energy from, uh
Sitting inside for hours, so
I was wondering if you'd let me get it out with you
So I can say
Hey
Oh, 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, yeah
That I, I, yeah, I need you so
'Cause right now you know
That nothing here's new
And I'm obsessed with you
Then I fell to the ground
And she smiled at me and said

[Verse 1]
I don't wanna see you cry, no, no
No, you don't have to feel this emptiness
Shе said, "I'll love you 'til the day that I die"
Comе on
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, yeah
[Chorus]
I'm tryna keep my mind at bay, uh-oh
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes
Make it down, down, do-down-down, yeah, uh-huh
Diggy-dig down, du-du-du-du
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes

[Verse 2]
You know you need to get yourself to sleep
And dream a dream of you and I
You see, there's no need to keep an open eye
I promise that I'm the one for you
So just let me hold you in these arms tonight
I'm lucky to be me and you can see it in my face
Back when I fucked my shit up too many times
Why would I let myself get down in the first place?

[Chorus]
Yeah, I'm tryna keep my mind at bay
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes, yeah
Make it down, down, do-down-down
Diggy-dig down, du-du-du-down, listen
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes
[Bridge]
And so
She sat me down and told me that I didn't have to cry
She said I didn't need to get down or feel empty inside, huh
And then she told me that she would love me for as long as she's alive
Who's in love?
Maybe she's right
'Cause I hate it when I feel like I'm not me
You see, I honestly don't even know why
Radio City, I wanna introduce you to my friend Johnny on the trumpet
And you better make some fucking noise

[Chorus]
I'm tryna keep my mind at bay, uh-oh
Sunflower still grows at night
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes, yeah
Yeah, ah, ah, ah
Diggy-dig down, down, du-du-du-du, yeah
Waiting for a minute 'til the sun's seen through my eyes
