Dandelion Bruised Lyrics

Sitting on the front porch

In the middle of August

You were leaning on my shoulder

Using me as an arm rest

I was sitting, smiling

I was unaware I confess

What was waiting for me

In the middle of August

Because I bet my heart in March

And in April too

And I bet my heart in May

And I bet my heart in June

I bet my heart in July

In the late afternoon

I bet my heart in August

And my love fell through

But hey now, I'm no longer black and blue

I'm a greenish, yellow, tannish hue

Hoping that the wind will carry me

Over these city gates

And I'll find somewhere to contemplate

The world through a different point of view

Cause I'm no longer broke darlin

I'm just dandelion bruised

You can ask for specifics

They won't do you and good

Cause the questions lead to questions

Then you got more then you could

Ever know what to do with

Well, and there's the rub you see

Specifics never were no go to me

Because I bet my heart in March

And in April too

And I bet my heart in May

And I bet my heart in June

I bet my heart in July

In the late afternoon

You know I bet my heart in August

And my love fell through

Hey now, I'm no longer black and blue

I'm a greenish, yellow, tannish hue

Hoping that the wind will carry me

Over these city gates

And I'll find somewhere to contemplate

The world through a different point of view

Cause I'm no longer broke darlin

I'm just dandelion bruised

Hey now, I'm no longer black and blue

I'm a greenish, yellow, tannish hue

Hoping that the wind will carry me

Over these city gates

And I'll find somewhere to contemplate

The world through a different point of view

Cause I'm no longer broke darlin

I'm just dandelion

I'm no longer broke darlin

I'm just dandelion

I'm no longer broke darlin

Hey, I'm just dandelion bruised
