Dandelion

This goes with the previous post. First heard it on the first mix that J. ever sent my way. Loved it at first listen.

Dandelion

In the middle of the night
In the middle of the bed
In the middle of something you just said
I couldn’t hear the words
Watching the face move
Hands explaining something
I don’t remember
All I know is I was worried
Getting to know you
Should I leave?
Should I hurry out?

Wildflowers or weeds
I wonder what you think of me
I love you already
But when I look at myself
Sometimes I feel like
I’m a dandelion
Like others you can find

Got a new haircut
A pair of fancy shoes
And I’ve been listening to the tunes
I have heard you talk about
Don’t wanna be out
Don’t want you to think that we have
Nothing in common
Or that I don't care if we
Carry on a conversation
I’d speak if I could breathe

Wildflowers or weeds
I wonder what you think of me
I love you already
But when I look at myself
Sometimes I feel like
I’m a dandelion
Like others you can find

To myself I wonder, Why?
What is it with this one?
There must be ten million
Others I could go to
I could be with besides you
But no, no, no, I can't do
Anthing about it
Anything about the way I feel
Though I don't have to tell you
I’m so afraid I will

Wildflowers or weeds
I wonder what you think of me
I love you already
But when I look at myself
Sometimes I feel like
I’m a dandelion
Like others you can find
