Sunflower Girl

I used to think I knew her
But now I only wish that I could
Dust off my shoulder
She's latched onto my mind just like a hook And if I see her
I smile knowing who she used to be

She broke my heart in style
I'd probably let her break my heart again
Cause for a while
She's been living rent free up here in my head
Wish I could tell her
But the sun and the moon never meet
That's what it seems

But if she wakes up in the morning
And finds herself thinking of me
I'd be lying if I told you
That knowing of it didn't mean a thing
Cause now and then I think of
What I should have been and what I couldn't see

And when she leaves I hate
To see her go

She's a sunflower girl
Living in her own world
Shalalalalalalala
Sunflower girl
Living in her own world
Shalalala lalalalala
Shalalala lalalalala
Shalalala lalalalala

Threw sneakers on a wire
Get yelled at by the neighbors in the street
For being reckless
And telling us that they might call the police But we're in high school
So we don't even know what that means

I think about the sweater
I gave away that she gave to me
In December
When it was cold and I was seventeen
Should I have kept it
For the sake of keeping all the memories
The memories

So if she wakes up in the morning
And comes to find that I'm on her mind
I'd be lying if I told you
That it didn't happen to me all the time
Cause now and then I wonder if she's still the girl she was when she was mine

And when she leaves I hate
To see her go

She's a sunflower girl
Living in her own world
Shalalalalalalala
Sunflower girl
Living in her own world
Shalalala lalalalala
Shalalala lalalalala
Shalalala lalalala

Sunflower girl
She's living in her own world
Shalalala lalalala
Sunflower girl
Living in her own world
Shalalala lalalalala
Shalalala lalalalala
And maybe she'll come back to mine
Yeah maybe she'll come back to mine
Maybe she'll come back to mine
I hope that she comes back
To mine
Hey!
