lyrics

on day one of the sunflower
broke through the fence
tore up the cement
became a little tower above
and called on all
to come on and behold
the rise and the fall

the rise and the fall
your eyes in the fall

figure eight across the sky
you're a circle on my mind
daylight darkens, winter fades
there's nothing time
won't take away

the rise and the fall
the horizon calls

the analemma observation league
has no attachment to the fate of the seed
the analemma observation league
just wants to see what will be

candle burning by the hour
flame grows tall in stares of wonder
melted wax runs through my hands
I went away but I'm back again
tide is rising by the hour
waves grow high, we stare in wonder
the hourglass, the racing sands
I went away but I'm back again

on day one of the sunflower
