Mariah Carey: Sunflowers lyrics

Thank you for forgiving
Hurtful things Ive done as a child
Adolescent or woman
Thank you for embracing a flaxen-haired baby
Although Im aware you had doubts
I guess anybodyd have had doubts

Please be at peace father
Im at peace with you
Bitterness isnt worth cling to
After all the anguish weve all been through

Thank you for the mountains
The lake of the clouds
Im 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 youve always been proud of me
I needed to feel that so desperately
Youre always alive inside of me
Now youre shining like
A sunflower up in the sky
Way up high
