Nicole Richie – Dandelion lyrics
[Verse 1:]
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 don't 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
[Hook:]
He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea
He's not exactly everything
I thought that she 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
[Chorus:]
Then I hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on
[Verse 2:]
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
[Hook:]
He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea
He's not exactly everything
I thought that she 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
[Chorus:]
Then I hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on
(Instrumental Break)
[Verse 3:]
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
[Bridge:]
I 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
[Hook:]
He's a dandelion, up on a cliff above the sea
He's not exactly everything
I thought that she 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
[Chorus Til Fade:]
Then I hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on
