I’ve had the chorus for this song for a while now…and the verses are coming to me now….it’s going to be the hardest song I’ve ever written, more so than any on the Love Struck album – the one that has/is giving me somewhere for healing and to channel my emotion, but not all of it comes from ‘being in love’ with Nick. And so this song is very emotional for me. It’s for my son – and it’s called ‘Sunflower Soul’…and I’m not sure which album I’ll place it into yet – probably ‘Little Blue Dot’, though it belongs on the ‘Bulldozers & Roses’ one.
V1
It’s time to take a trip down memory lane
And write about the things that nearly drove me insane
About the times I left you all alone and waiting
While I was out escaping
Pain escalating
Yeah I was round the corner getting wasted
While I left you all alone and breaking
Taking time out mistrust
Couldn’t let you look me in the eyes
Eyes mixed with lies
Colder than ice
Reflection of a high
Angry at the God that gave you diabetes
Hating me for being the one
Not the one
Bang the drums n
I was a broken down mother
And only wanted to be home
But instead was out n about
Hanging out
Trying to make sense of it all
Yeah I left you alone all alone & breaking
While I was out escaping
WORK IN PROGRESS…..
Chorus
You’re the only one who sees me tripping up
Who sees me falling down
Who loves me anyway
And you’re the only one who breathes in the fears
Who breathes out silent tears
Who loves me anyway
Yeah you’re the only one
Sunflower Soul
You’re the only one
Who loves me anyway
