Dandelion

by The Awkward Stage

on Slimming Mirrors, Flattering Lights (2008)

You're prettier than them Dandelion
You're prettier than them Dandelion
Dandelion, Dandelion, Dandelion
You're prettier than them Dandelion

Lift up your, lift up your head
It's your sun its your sun too
Lift up your, lift up your head
It's your blue sky, your blue sky too

The feet that have trampled you
And the bees that have sampled you
You're stronger than they ever knew

You're prettier than them Dandelion
You're prettier than them, Dandelion
Dandelion, Dandelion, Dandelion
You're prettier than them Dandelion

Before long there will come a day
When all that is golden is grey
Before long there will come a day
When you will be carried away

But all that you've touched
Will be given so much
New beauty wherever you lay

You're prettier than them Dandelion, You're prettier than them Dandelion
Dandelion, Dandelion, Dandelion, You're prettier than them Dandelion

Oh, the poor rose Dandelion
