Dandelion (Kelis Version)

[Verse 1: LFO]

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 tonight, let me 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 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 16 stars

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

[Chorus: LFO]

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

She's not 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

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

Hold on, hold on, hold on

[Verse 2: Kelis]

I just might be poison, but he took me to his rooftop

He said, "Are you afraid of heights?" I said, "No, I am not"

He said, "Hey girl, don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel"

We danced around in circles, he said, "I think we found something real"

[Chorus: LFO & Kelis, LFO]

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

She's not 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

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

[Verse 3: LFO]

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 piece 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 in love with the dandelion and she's all I ever had

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

[Chorus: LFO]

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

She's not 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

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

And I hold on, hold on, hold on

And I tell myself, hold on, hold on, hold on

Yeah, hold on, hold on, hold on

[Outro: LFO & Kelis]

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

She's not exactly everything I thought that she would 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
