Dandelion Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Settle down now and sit with me
Let me tell you how this all came to be
A yellow flower with your petals to the air
And flying on paper wings that brought you here
Summer rolls on in the lazy hours
An neither dream way of hummingbirds and clouds
Midnight swims in the cool black waves
And you in my arms as it rolls away

[Pre-Chorus]
Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All your tomorrows shine

[Chorus]
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine

[Verse 2]
Born of restless night the moon as a pearl
Playing games down inside your soft warm world
Hear my voice, I know that you can
You're the fire in my eyes, the sun as a man
Seasons come along and seasons go
And what they'll leave behind, I don't pretend to know
I'm afraid that all I have missed
Will loom very large when the darkness lifts
[Pre-Chorus]
Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All your tomorrows shine

[Chorus]
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows

[Bridge]
I will ride by your side
Wherever you go
I won't run, I won't hide
Just letting you know
Just letting you know

[Pre-Chorus]
Little dandelion
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All your tomorrows shine

[Chorus]
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine
Oh, oh
All your tomorrows shine
