I saw her on a friday outside some run down saloon
She was crying over someone that she felt left much too soon
I said hey girl don't you cry tonite lemme 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 what are you some kinda creep
I told 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 our's

Chorus:
She's a dandelion up on a hill above the sea
She's not exactly everything i thought that she might be
She's dandelion she looks like everything i need
I thought she was a flower but i found out she's a weed
And i hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on

She just might be poison but i took her to my rooftop
I said are you afraid of hieghts 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 a cliff above the sea
She's not exactly everything i thought that she might be
She's dandelion she looks like everything i need
I thought she was a flower but i found out she's a weed
And i hold on hold on hold on
And i 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 17th and she knew him all too well
My little peice 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 wouldn't see my girl after today

I fell inlove w/ the dandelion and she's all i ever had
At first she looks so sweet but in the end she takes him back

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea
She's not exactly everything i thought that she might be
She's dandelion she looks like everything i need
I thought she was a flower but i found out she's a weed
And i hold on hold on hold on
And i hold on hold on hold on
And i take it slow
Hold on hold on hold on
Hold on hold on hold on
She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea
She's not exactly everything i thought that she would be
