Sun-drenched days, a laugh that chased the clouds away
Golden girl, a world in perpetual display
Then the storm hit, stole the sunshine from my view. I lost my big brother Chris;
Leaving my once colorful world feeling like itd been let down n left black and blue...
Leaving my once rhythmic world in silence,
my world was now dipped in nothing but shade-less hues.. color robbed from the world that I once knew...
then i met this guy he walked in, and had this darkness mirrored in his disguise
Emptiness echoed, familiarity in his addicted eyes I wanted to save him, so I tried
Misunderstood sunshine, thought sinking with him was the key
But the current pulled me under, a prisoner I couldn't flee
Sunflower wilted, petals falling one by one
Lost in the maze, searching for the rising sun
Love for you, Leo, a flicker in the storm's rage
But the whispers of addiction kept turning every page
Years bled together, a blurry, colorless haze
Numb and lost, the world in endless gray days
The highs, a facade, a desert mirage in sight
Leaving you seaching for a mother, bathed in golden light
Your voice, a whisper, shattering the fog I knew
"Why can't you stop, Mom?" The question pierced me through, flashbacks to when I asked this question too! before my world turned blue
Tears streamed down, a watercolor washing away the lie
The path I'd chosen, reflected in your saddened eyes
Sunflower wilted, petals falling one by one [Yeah]
Lost in the maze, searching for the rising sun [Uh huh]
Love for you, Leo, a flicker in the storm's rage [Yeah]
But the whispers of addiction kept turning every page [Yeah]
Sinking deeper, a kaleidoscope gone astray [Yeah]
But your small hand reached out, a beacon leading the way [Uh huh]
A spark of hope, a ray of sunshine cutting through [Yeah]
"You're still yellow, Mom," the words that pulled me back to you [Yeah]
The fog began to lift, colors bleeding back to life [Look]
My heart, a canvas, ready to fight for the colors you like
The journey wouldn't be easy, doubts might linger like rain
But for you love, my masterpiece, I'll weather every pain [Yeah]
Sunflower wilted, yes, but seeds of gold remain
Planted deep within me, nurtured by love's gentle rain [Uh huh]
Love for you, Leo, the fire that burns so true
Melting away the shadows, painting skies of hopeful hues
[Outro]
The world won't always be sunshine, that's a lesson I see [Look]
But even on cloudy days, a golden ray sets me free
There will be storms, moments when darkness tries to creep [Uh huh]
But together, my sunflower, we will keep Yellow, the color of hope, and speaking of hope, son did you know hope can conquer any fear? Pandora kept it in her box and she gave it to me, I've got it right here: I luv u Leo my dear
