feat. Kelis)



Saw her on a Friday outside someone run down saloon

She was cryin over someone 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 would I use 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 one's ours

She's a dandelion, up on her 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



Then I hold on hold on hold on

hold on hold on hold on



[Kelis]

I just be poison

but I took he took me to his roof top

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



She's a dandelion, up on her 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



Then I hold on hold on hold on

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 seventeenth that 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 would not see my girl after today



I fell in love with a dandelion

and she's all I ever had

at first she looked so sweet

but in the end she tastes so bad

She's a dandelion, up on her 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



Then 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

yeah hold on

She's a dandelion, up on her 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



Then I hold on hold on hold on

hold on hold on hold on
