I often sit and wonder how your face would look
If you sat there, reading a stack of paper books
Under the starry sky
Too nervous to look into your eyes
Honey darling, can we just take our time?

My friends are suggesting cutting ties
But I'm happy to watch your face glow by the fireflies
Living life one day at a time
Brushing the grass off my jeans
Putting the past behind me like a pantomime
Sitting, laughing with McDonald's and some cold tea
I hope after this night, maybe you'll think of me

I'm tempted to write bout you
But I wouldn't do it justice
I'm scared that I'll hurt you bad
I'm just being honest

Start up enzymes, i need to digest today
Will you, will you
Will you be my protégé?

Call it a rib cage for a reason
My hearts beating out of season
Can you stop the tidal waves?
To make up for leaving my head in the microwave

Now walk past her in the hallway and if your arm gets the slightest brush
You might just melt away into puddles of yellow and gold
The best of a Midas touch

I often sit and wonder how your face would look
If you sat there, reading a stack of paper books
Under the starry sky
Too nervous to look into your eye
Honey darling, can we just take our time?

Just still here in sunflower fields
I don't wanna run
And you told me about your favourite flowers
So i got you some
The thing about sunflowers is
They're only popular on the happy days
So honey i'll be the sunflower through your rainy days
With the winter storms, hail and the snow
Darling I'll make sure your petals grow
Stop them from fading or falling out
And ill bring my watering can everyday
To ensure you escape the drought

I often sit and wonder how your face would look
If you sat there, reading a stack of paper books
Under the starry sky
Too nervous to look into your eyes
Honey darling, can we just take our time?

I often sit and wonder how your face would look
If you sat there, reading a stack of paper books
Under the starry sky
Too nervous to look into your eyes
Honey darling, please can we just take our time?
