Sunflower in the Window

Lyrics

[Verse 1] You keep a chipped blue cup beside the sink Morning takes its time before you blink Through the kitchen glass, one yellow face Turns toward the day and holds its place [Pre-Chorus] You said the hard days made you small I said, look how you still stand tall [Chorus] Turn your face toward the morning Let the quiet do its work You are more than what has broken More than every heavy word If the ground is cold beneath you Take the warmth the season brings Like a sunflower in the window You can bend and still begin [Verse 2] There’s a list of things you never got to do Folded in a coat you outgrew Leave it there; the afternoon is wide We can take the long way home beside the tide [Pre-Chorus] You said the past still calls your name I said tomorrow won’t be the same [Chorus] Turn your face toward the morning Let the quiet do its work You are more than what has broken More than every heavy word If the ground is cold beneath you Take the warmth the season brings Like a sunflower in the window You can bend and still begin [Bridge] No need to bloom for anybody No need to prove the rain was kind Keep one small promise to your heartbeat Leave the rest behind [Final Chorus] Turn your face toward the morning Let the quiet do its work You are more than what has broken More than every heavy word When the clouds return above you Hold the gold you found within Like a sunflower in the window You can bend and still begin [Outro] You can bend and still begin You can bend and still begin
