Nicole Richie – Dandelion lyrics

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

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 did 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 she 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
And I hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on
