•|Dandelion|•

Saw him on a Friday outside some run down saloon
he was cryin over someone that he felt left much too soon
I said, hey boy don't you cry tonight
let me take you out on this town
he looked at me and smiled as one last tear splashed off the ground
with half a wink he asked me what are you some kind of freak
I told him 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
he's a dandelion, up on his hill above the sea
he's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

he's a dandelion
he looks like everything I need
I thought he was a flower
but I found out he's a weed

Then I hold on hold on hold on
hold on hold on hold on

he might just be poison
but I took him to my roof top
I said are you afraid of heights,
He said no I am not
I said hey boy don't you lie to me, tell me everything you feel
we danced around in circles,
He said I think we found something real

he's a dandelion, up on his cliff above the sea
he's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

he's a dandelion
he looks like everything I need
I thought he was a flower
but I found out he's a weed

Then 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'd remain unknown
he met someone on seventeenth that he knew her all too well
my little piece of heaven has a secret he won't tell
with half a smile he took her hand
and then they walked away
I realized I would not see my boy after today

I fell in love with a dandelion
and he's all I ever had
at first he looked so sweet
but in the end he tastes so bad
he's a dandelion, up on his cliff above the sea
he's not exactly everything I thought that he might be

he's a dandelion
he looks like everything I need
I thought she was a flower
but I found out he'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

I've heard this song from Nicole Richie couple years ago. It never hitted me back then but just awhile a person kept reminding me of this song. FYI, though, dandelion tea is addicting according to my aunts and my mom who tried it, the real ones not the the process and packed-in-small-paper-bags dandelion tea. I don't know if it taste really bad. I'm a green tea girl. Wahaha. True to that, just tonight my brother and I went a purchase four bags/pack (one a pack of 100 tea bags and three pack of 24 tea bags). Chai, Earl Grey Black, Lychee & Pear flavoured Green andVanilla Bean (love this) teas. Okei, I'm going off topic and telling this doesn't elucidated that I'm a green tea addict. Btw, dang that Korean convenience store adjacent to our building selling the Earl Grey Black Tea for $34.99. 24K tea I say, no?

So yea:

s/he is a dandelion up on his cliff above the sea
s/he's not exactly everything I thought that s/he might be

Little announcement, I made it through my first week in college. So far no glitz, no comment, yet, on my courses. Wish me luck. I spent my lunch money to buy four magazines that totaled to twenty bucks. I could've save that and add more money to get these cute plaid poncho from Urban Outfitters I wanted long time ago. Belated X-mas gift anyone? Who takes the first dib?
