|
Saw her on a Friday outside someone run down saloon |
|
She was cryin over someone she felt left much too soon |
|
I said, hey girl don't you cry tonight |
|
let me take you out on this town |
|
She looked at me and smiled as one last tear splashed off the ground |
|
with half a wink she asked me would I use some kind of creep |
|
I told her no, I guess I just feel your vibe is kinda deep |
|
the moon hung over soho |
|
and I counted 16 stars |
|
I pointed at the brightest one and said now that one's ours |
|
She's a dandelion, up on her hill above the sea |
|
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be |
|
|
|
She's a dandelion |
|
she looks like everything I need |
|
I thought she was a flower |
|
but I found out she's a weed |
|
|
|
Then I hold on hold on hold on |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
|
She might just be poison |
|
but I took her to my roof top |
|
I said are you afraid of heights, |
|
she said no I am not |
|
I said hey girl don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel |
|
we danced around in circles, |
|
she said I think we found something real |
|
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea |
|
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be |
|
|
|
she's a dandelion |
|
she looks like everything I need |
|
I thought she was a flower |
|
but I found out she's a weed |
|
|
|
Then I hold on hold on hold on |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
|
Down in union square |
|
I saw her walking all alone |
|
I walked a little slower just so I'd remain unknown |
|
she met someone on seventeenth that she knew him all too well |
|
my little piece of heaven has a secret she won't tell |
|
with half a smile she took his hand |
|
and then they walked away |
|
I realized I would not see my girl after today |
|
|
|
I fell in love with a dandelion |
|
and she's all I ever had |
|
at first she looked so sweet |
|
but in the end she tastes so bad |
|
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea |
|
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be |
|
|
|
she's a dandelion |
|
she looks like everything I need |
|
I thought she was a flower |
|
but I found out she's a weed |
|
|
|
Then I hold on hold on hold on |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
|
And I tell myself |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
|
yeah hold on |
|
She's a dandelion, up on her cliff above the sea |
|
she's not exactly everything I thought that she might be |
|
|
|
She's a dandelion |
|
she looks like everything I need |
|
I thought she was a flower |
|
but I found out she's a weed |
|
|
|
Then I hold on hold on hold on |
|
hold on hold on hold on |
