Sunflower

You saw me in a field
Looking beautiful and gold
And you decided then you wanted
Something to love, something to hold
And so you picked me out of the bunch
And told me you would never let go
But my fate was sealed as soon as you picked me up

And you called me a sunflower
And you said you would hold
Me until the day I die
But you didn't realize that
Some flowers wilt when you hold on
A little too tight
And all picked flowers do is die

And even if you hold it
And tell it that you love it
And you take it every day
And you shower it with kisses
It's the fate of a flower picked out of place

And even if the tiniest piece of you had meant it
Once you sealed the deal, I never had a chance
There was nothing I could've done to make you stay

And you called me a sunflower
And you said you would hold
Me until the day I die
But you didn't realize that
Some flowers wilt when you hold on
A little too tight
And all picked flowers do is die
