Nicole Richie - Dandelion lyrics

rate me

I saw him on a Friday outside some run down saloon

He was cryin' over someone that he felt left much too soon

I said, hey boy dont you cry tonight let me take you out on this town

He looked at me and smiled as one last tear splashed off the ground

With half a wink he asked me what are you some kind of freak

I told him 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

He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea

He's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

He's a dandelion

He looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower

But I found out he's a weed

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

hold on, hold on, hold on

He just might be poison

But I took him to my roof top

I said are you afraid of heights,

He said no I am not

I said hey boy don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel

We danced around in circles,

He said I think we found something real

He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea

He's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

He's a dandelion

He looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower

But I found out he's a weed

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

hold on, hold on, hold on

Down in Union Square

I saw him walking all alone

I walked a little slower just so I'd remain unknown

He met someone on Seventeenth and he knew her all too well

My little piece of heaven has a secret he won't tell

With half a smile he took her hand and then they walked away

I realized I wouldn't see my boy after today

Fell in love with a dandelion

And he's all I ever had

At first he looked so sweet

But in the end he tastes so bad

He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea

He's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

He's a dandelion

He looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower

But I found out he's a weed

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

hold on, hold on, hold on (X2)
