Dandelion Songtext
von Kristin Hersh

You above me in the alley
Cupid shooting dandelions

Rusty railings, my boots slipping
My only failing, thinking you were clean

When I could see you with my dirty eyes
Cupid drinking dandelion wine


We are a three legged race
A stuttering steeplechase
It′s after midnight, but we don't have far to go
Cupid slinging dandelion hope

We are a three legged race
A slow burning steeplechase
It′s after midnight, but we don't have far to go
Cupid blowing dandelion smoke

Wrecked with clarity
Two of us who can't be numbed
Walk off, arm in arm
Like watching something burn
