Sunflower

Six acres of concrete wasteland,one sunflower standing tall,
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame,
I just liked you that's all.
I cannot buy you diamond rings, for christ sake I can barely sing,
I feel like a teenager in danger of doing that falling for thing.
I didn't mean for this happen, but the greatest things happen by accident,
Like the apple on Isaac's head.
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine,
Electricity shooting down my spine .
We sat for hours, we waited till the sun went down,
Alighted the night bus, nowhere near this town.
Six acres of concrete wasteland,one sunflower standing tall,
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame,
I just proper liked you that's all.
We talked histories and pasts, I let you read the second draft,
Converging through the afternoon.
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine,
Electricity shooting down my spine.
We sat for hours, you weathered my monologue,
A burning beacon, burning through the fog.
Standing out from the crowd that's just the way you are,
To look that good should not be allowed, our local movie star.
The girls all call in envy, the guys all call in envy
la de da de da de da de do.
We sat for hours, you measured your thumb against mine,
Electricity shooting down my spine.
We sat for hours, we waited till the sun went down,
Alighted the night bus nowhere near this town.
Six acres of concrete wasteland,one sunflower standing tall,
I didn't know your name, I didn't know your fame,
I just liked you that's all.
