I saw him on a friday outside some run down salon.

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 of the ground

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

I told him no I guess just fell your vibe is kinda deep

Well move over soho and I counted 16 stars

I pointed at the brightest one and said now that ones ours

(chorus)

Hes a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

Hes not exactly everything I thought that he might be

Hes a dandelion he looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower but I found out hes 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 hights he said no I am not

I said hey boy dont you lie to me tell me everything you feel

We danced around in circle he said I think we found something real

(chorus)

Hes a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

Hes not exactly everything I thought that he might be

Hes a dandelion he looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower but I found out hes 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 remain unknown

He meet someone on 17th and he knew her all to well

My little peice of heaven has a secret he wont tell

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

I realized I wouldnt see my boy after today

Fell in love with a dandelion and hes all I ever had

At first he looked so sweet but in the end he taste so bad

(chorus)

Hes a dandelion up on a cliff above the sea

Hes not exactly everything I thought that he might be

Hes a dandelion he looks like everything I need

I thought he was a flower but I found out hes a weed

And I hold on..hold on...hold on...

Hold on...hold on....hold on...

And I hold on...hold on..hold on
