If I was a sunset, I'd want to lay on your bed And watch the Hollywood lights flicker as it started to dim If I was a movie, you know I'd feel pretty good I'd watch you dancing all night in the dark where I stood I don't think about you I don't think about you I don't think about you You don't think about me Miss Sunflower Blue She's got the brown eyes, yeah, and they're pretty as hell And they'll burn through your shirt if you're holding her still She's got a lighter, and a lit cigarette And if you're making her smile, that's just as high as you can get I don't think about you I don't think about you I don't think about you You don't think about me Miss Sunflower Blue I'm still out on Sunset in a taxicab I'm still at the movies, and I'm holding your hand Still at an overpass view looking out at the lights Still on an airplane, and I'm starting to cry I don't think about you If I was the evening, you know I'd send you a breeze I'd let it whisper in your ear, kiss you and sing you to sleep If I wasn't so screwed up, maybe all the words might have come But I think the needing just took everything they wanted was sung I don't think about you I don't think about you I don't think about you You don't think about me Miss Sunflower Blue
For me, best love song of the modern era. The writer’s pain is so palpable, it actually makes my chest hurt. That’s quite a feat bearing in mind the thousands of songs out there that mostly only deliver a 3minute buzz. There is something eternal about this though, made all the more poignant by Ryan’s magical delivery of the words. Could write a dissertation on this song .
@erin lane - how strange I was about to listen to this song! And if you love it as much as I do, then we’re kindred spirits. Imagine for a second being the person this was written for - what an awesome tribute 💕I would die happy. Ha!
@@bw5785 Aww, I love that. Thank you. I am new to his music and never had songs reach into my soul like this. Probably sounds weird I suppose, can’t really explain it. Discovering all his music has gotten me thru a tough few months this year.
Simply beautiful -I adore this part of the song - If I was the evening, you know I'd send you a breeze I'd let it whisper in your ear, kiss you and sing you to sleep If I wasn't so screwed up, maybe all the words might have come But I think the needing just took everything they wanted was sung ....
I saw him live recently on the Ashes tour. Unfortunately up in a balcony far away from him, somehow still felt like i was directly in front of him listening. Hes one of those few artists whether your seeing him play or just listening on youtube, he can really bring you into the songs and make you feel what he felt at the time. I think that even without hearing it, he understands what hes done for people like me and you. Just agreeing with your comment! hes an awesome dude

Thanks so much for posting this, i heard it on your channel first, loved it and try to learn it. I've been a long time fan, he knows exactly what I like to hear, Idk how he does it.
Alex Carlson Respectfully disagree. He's one of the best songwriters in the last 20 or so years. Just listen to the Cold Roses album, or Stranger's Almanac (Whiskeytown) or Gold or Ashes & Fire. The list goes on. C'mon!!

She's got the brown eyes, yeah, and they're pretty as hell
And they'll burn through your shirt if you're holding her still

Totally agree! This song cuts deep, get goosebumps every time I hear it.

@erinlane - have you found‘I Love You But I Don’t Know What To Say’ yet?? Goosebump City 💕
@@bw5785 No, not yet. I will check it out. Thank you.
Definitely top 10 songs by Ryan.

lol brilliant
She's got the brown eyes, yeah, and they're pretty as hell
and if you're making her smile, that's just as high as you can get 💜

Most epic song ever. You really can't get better than this.
It soothes and breaks my heart all at once.
Who's better than this man? Thank you Dr. Adams for being the best therapist ever! I can't wait to c u next Saturday in Columbus!
The most perfectly written song I've ever heard.....chills all the way through
#RyanAdams you lullaby Moi into the sweetest space ever.. just beautiful to my soul♾

I am so obsessing on this cd right now.. damn
Thank you for putting this on youtube, it's the only place i can find it. This DRA at his best, beautiful, emotive, dreamlike with the dobro
This is so beautifull, its the first time i hear something from ryan adams. Wonderfull!

Still my fav DRA song I can't believe it was never released on an album
Gorgeous listen. Thanks for the upload.

Love this !!! Need this album !!!
Beautiful..
Thanks so much for posting this, i heard it on your channel first, loved it and try to learn it. I've been a long time fan, he knows exactly what I like to hear, Idk how he does it.
He uses my storylines for all of it…that’s how…?
Bought this album from a cat in the U.K. Haven't taken it out of the CD player since
Wow..
melancholy + nostalgia = dandelion daydream
ahhhhh in what type of unjust world does this record NOT get released ahhhhhh
This is quite lovely isn't it
Wow
The whole song is perfect but Jesus that bridge is poignant
Pain was not integral in my penning this..the events were well in the past for this inspiration…and I don’t associate those reactions as pain any rate
in which event you lie about the circumstances for the stories...
Oooomg Ryan Adams is so overrated.. This sux
Alex Carlson Respectfully disagree. He's one of the best songwriters in the last 20 or so years. Just listen to the Cold Roses album, or Stranger's Almanac (Whiskeytown) or Gold or Ashes & Fire. The list goes on. C'mon!!
+Alex Carlson It's a great song. If you want to be critical of it, you should be more articulate.
Alex Carlson go fuck yourself
Obviously you have no idea about
Real Music....
You picked an odd one to say he's overrated. This is literally one of the most gorgeous, heartbreaking songs of all time...and it's unreleased.
