[Mariah Carey - Sunflowers for Alfred Roy lyrics]
Shining like a sunflower up in the sky
Shining like a sunflower up in the sky
Thank you for forgiving
Hurtful things I've done
As a child, adolescent or woman
Thank you for embracing a flaxen haired baby
Although I'm aware you had your doubts
(I guess anybody would have doubts)
I guess anybody have a doubt
Please be at peace, father
I'm at peace with you
Bitterness isn't worth clinging to
After all the anguish we've all been through
Thank you for the mountains
The lake of the clouds
I'm picturing you and me there, right now
As the crystal cascades showered down
Strange to feel that proud, strong man
Grip tightly to my hand
Hard to see the life inside
Wane as the days went by
Trying to preserve each word
He murmured in my ear
Watch part of my life disappear
Father, thanks for reaching out and lovingly
Saying that you've always been proud of me
I needed to feel that so desperately
(Now you're shining like a sunflower
Up in the sky)
You're always alive inside of me
(Way up high)
