lyrics

They’re all just like dandelions
Glistening from the morning dew
In the morning sun
They shine and shine

Like the pedals on the flower
They reach out with their arms
To shake your hand
And greet you - and meet you

This fantastic brand new world
Only seemed like a dream to me
With how everything yesterday was
How on Earth could this be

My eyes have been closed for far too long
I forgot what it was like to be
In a place where I felt so free
I no longer have the weight
On my shoulders anymore
I used to always feel so insecure with myself
And felt alone - felt so unsure
But not anymore

Everyone is having a ball
There’s no hostility to be seen
There’s no civil unrest
And no one has the need to go out and protest

In this utopia
Everyone knows where everything stands
They always keep reality near
And well at hand

There’s no faking the truth
Or reasons to be uncouth
So drop your guns
Stop the hate
And everyone lets create
A better place for tomorrow

I feel so great now
Come on everyone
Let’s have some fun

Just like dandelions - swaying side by side
Like a sweet summer breeze in the night
