Dandelion School Lyrics - Jens Lekman

Lisa, I came to think of us before 

As I walked through our old town 

Preparing for a storm 

I bought water and candles like the prepper I've always been 

Oh, Lisa, Lisa 

I always waited for the worst 

While you just smiled and dived in head first 

There's a sadness in everything I never did 

And everything that I did do 

While not really being there 

Never stepped over the threshold with both shoes 

Made sure I never got close to anything that I could lose 

Oh, Lisa, Lisa 

I couldn't really see 

How I built a bomb shelter under every dream 

And how I slowly came to be a dandelion seed 

Blaming the wind for where it carried me 

The storm's picking up 

Been waiting long enough at this bus stop 

So I turn around, make a beeline past [?] 

Dripping down [?] 

Down to the harbor 

To what's left of this old town 

I sit there and listen to the wind and how it's playing 

Through the cranes over it's hissing and 

The wind is like a 

The wind is like a string section 

The wind is like a string section 

The wind is like a string section 

The wind is like a string section
