P.J. Olsson - Dandelion

Dandelion

Sometime I feel like a dandelion seed
Floating in the wind
Where will I go, where will I land
Sometime I feel like a clown's smile
Turned up on it's end
And for no reason at all
I've got perma grin
Sometime I feel like a starfish
Feeding in the sand
An angelfish swims nearby
With a twist of it's fin
Sometime I dream I am a whale
Swimmin' in the deep blue sea
My mind goes to the strangest places
How can this be

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

Sometimes I feel like a UFO
Flyin' in the air
Wondering if I'm ever gonna be accepted
Down there
Sometimes I fell like a snowflake
Stacking up on my friends
Feel the warmth of Mr. Sun
And I'm back to the earth again
On the wings of a butterfly
I fly over the flowers
Into the garden of your love
Where we melt into the colors
It's funny how this beautiful garden
Gives us what we need
I like the smell of balsa wood
I like the smell of weed
Sometimes I fell like a steam train
Barreling down the tracks
You, my friend, are waiting
For my caboose to pass
Sometimes like a hovercraft
Never touching the ground
Everyone is riding me
But it never weighs me down

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

Look at me
I'm a teardrop rolling down your cheek
Familiar with your sadness
It's enough to make me weep
Now I am a rolling stone
I feel like an accident
Right now I'm a boomerang
Like karma I come back
Like a guard growing dreams
Or a farmer with forever corn
I'm a filter for the ocean
An alphabet you don't have to learn
I'm spring's first flower
In love's first sigh
I'm all my dreams
I am the sky

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away

I'm a dandelion seed
Float, float, float away
