[Intro]

Woah

I want to know where I can go

When you're not around, and I'm feeling down

So won't you stay for a moment so I can say

I

I need you so? 'Cause right now, you know

That nothing here's new, and I'm obsessed with you

Then I fell to the ground, and you smiled at me and said


[Verse 1]

I don't wanna see you cry

You don't have to feel this emptiness

She said, "I'll love you till the day that I die"

Well, maybe she's right

'Cause I don't wanna feel like I'm not me

And to be honest, I don't even know why

I let myself get down in the first place


[Chorus]

Tryna keep my mind at bay

Sunflower still grows at night

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down, down, do-down-down

Diggy, dig down, doo-doo-doo-doo

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes


[Verse 2]

You know you need to get yourself to sleep and dream

A dream of you and I

There's no need to keep an open eye

I promise I'm the one for you

Just let me hold you in these arms tonight

I'm lucky to be me and you can see it in my face

Back when I fucked my shit up too many times

Why would I let myself get down in the first place?


[Chorus]

Tryna keep my mind at bay

Sunflower still grows at night

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down, down, do-down-down

Diggy, dig down, doo-doo-doo-doo

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes


[Bridge]

And so she sat me down and told me that I didn't have to cry

Said I didn't need to get down or feel empty inside

And told me that she'll love me for as long as she's alive

And well, maybe she's right

'Cause I hate it when I feel like I'm not me

See, I honestly don't even know why

I-I honestly don't even know why


[Chorus]

Tryna keep my mind at bay

Sunflower still grows at night

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes

Make it down, down, do-down-down

Diggy, dig down, doo-doo-doo-doo

Waiting for a minute till the sun's seen through my eyes
