Michael Rains - Dandelion Lyrics

I started out life, looked like a flower, then as a fluffy seed
Puffs got me to fly, with all the power to catch a passing breeze

I drifted around like butterflies doing their airborne dances
Was blown up and down, felt so alive, ducking the pear tree branches

I said, Look at me floating as free as a bird
When the wind dies down, I'll fall to the earth
I'll soak up rainwater then bask in sunshine
To look like I ought-a, a yellow dandelion

Looked for open space hoping to head where it was nice and muddy
But finally got placed into a bed of flowers that smelled lovely

Once settled in soil, I spread my roots wanting to feed my leaves
Feeling them uncoil, my tender shoots allowed me to be me

I said, Look at me growing high above the grass
Nothing can stop me, I'm sprouting up fast
I'll soak up rainwater then bask in sunshine
To look like I ought-a, a yellow dandelion

I created a flower all of my own and felt some fresh seeds form
So after a shower, when the wind blows, it'll look like a snow storm

I'll say, Look at them floating, as free as a bird
When the wind dies down, they'll fall to the earth
They'll soak up rainwater then bask in sunshine
To look like they ought-a, all yellow dandelions
