"Sunflower" lyrics

She don't like roses
Thinks that they're way too cliche
She's more wild than the flowers
I picked in this roadside bouquet
And I hope Stephens County
Don't know what they've got on their land
The world's prettiest thing
And I'm putting a ring on her hand

'Cause honey, I'm coming to you
Like a sunflower, she follows the sunshine
And I'll rope the moon
So you'll always still have a light on
When dark times are through
And I'll water this ground that you stand on
Growing older ain't something I planned
But I'll do it with you
Watching the sunflowers bloom

I'm a tumbleweed blowing
Dried up, and broken and tired
But I know that she'll settle me down
When I see her tonight
And I carry my flaws
But she still finds beauty in those
And I'm prayin' like hell
That these Okie winds take me home

'Cause honey, I'm coming to you
Like a sunflower she follows the sunshine
And I'll rope the moon
So you'll always still have a light on
When dark times are through
And I'll water this ground that you stand on
Growing older ain't something I planned
But I'll do it with you
Watching the sunflowers bloom

And there's blanket flowers
And Oklahoma roses
I'll tell the blue bonnets "bye"
And I'll cut the ties with them Texas skies
'Cause sunsets are better when I'm
Yeah, they're always better when I'm
With you

You're a sunflower that follows the sunshine
And I'll rope the moon
So you'll always still have a light on
When dark times are through
And I'll water this ground that you stand on
Growing older ain't something I planned
But I'll do it with you
Watching the sunflowers bloom

I'll do it with you
Watching the sunflowers bloom
Bloom
Bloom
Watching the sunflowers bloom
