[Verse 1]

I saw here on a Friday outside some rundown saloon

She was crying over someone that 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

[Verse 2]

With half a wink she asked me, "What are you, 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 sixteen stars

I pointed at the brightest one and said, "Now that one's ours"

[Chorus]

She's a dandelion up on a hill above thе sea

She's no exactly еverything 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

[Post-Chorus]

Then I hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on

[Verse 3]

She just might be poison but I took her to my rooftop

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"

[Chorus]

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

She's no 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

[Post-Chorus]

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on

Yeah

[Verse 4]

Down in Union Square I saw here 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 piece of heaven has a secret she won't tell

[Verse 5]

With half a smile she took his hand and then they walked away

I realized I wouldn't see my girl after today

I feel in love with a dandelion and she's all I ever had

At first she looks so sweet but in the end she tastes so bad

[Chorus]

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

She's no 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

[Post-Chorus]

And 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

[Chorus]

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

She's no 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

[Outro]

She's a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

She's no exactly everything I–
