Goldenrod

I watched the world light up as soon as you left the ground

If only I knew back then what I know now

Oh how the season's change yet you stick around

In a field full of a thousand weeds you're the only flower

It's easy to run but you choose to stay

Oh how you grow now I'm out of the shade

And I see your colors on the darkest of days

It's how you say what you mean well I meant what I said all along

You're my goldenrod

I see you in my dreams when I open my eyes

If I say I love you I hope you know that's no surprise

The winter's been cold but you give me the warmest of nights

Roots from the ground feel it now when I breathe you to life, oh

It's easy to run but you choose to stay

Oh how you grow now I'm out of the shade

And I see your colors on the darkest of days

It's how you say what you mean well I meant what I said all along, oh

You're my goldenrod

It's easy to run, but I love how you stay

And I've watched you grow, I'm forever out the shade

I've seen your colors, from then to today

It's how you say what you mean well I meant what I said all along

From the stem to the heart how you give me all you've got

You're my goldenrod
