In Every Sunflower

My book has more bookmarks than pages

'Cos it takes me ages

Or is everybody reading

Is everybody reading

Standing on a black Ulster hill

I never fear the chill

'Cos everybody's holding

Everybody's holding

I wouldn't swap the pain

For never knowing you

I wouldn't swap the pain

It was worth it for the view

My book has more bookmarks than pages

'Cos it takes me ages

Or is everybody reading

Is everybody reading

Of a sparkling Medusa

With snakes of cerise and blue

And though we're all pillars of salt now

It was worth it for the view

I wouldn't swap the pain

For never knowing you

I wouldn't swap the pain

'Cos it was worth it for the view

We're still watching

Your rainbow through the shower

And we still see you

In every sunflower

We're still watching

I make days from the hours

And I still see you

In every sunflower

Every screaming sunflower

How they scream

They scream

How they scream

For you
