See my eyes and I see my arms The seagulls say you've gone It was just a game of let's pretend And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears Purple clouds, golden rain Yesterday has gone And a dandelion dies in the wind If you're quick enough to rise With the sleep still in your eyes You'll see the shadow of the sun above my mind For the sea of tears is drowning me I cannot feel, I cannot see I cannot feel, I cannot see I know that only you can help me now Purple clouds, golden rain Yesterday has gone And a dandelion dies in the wind But a dandelion sighs And it tries to tell the wind That crying's not a bad thing But worrying is a sin If they sent a cloud from heaven I would ride into the skies To escape all of my troubles And to cast away your lies Purple rains have turn to gold The clouds of yesterday And a dandelion dies in the wind I see my eyes and I see my arms The seagulls say you've gone It was just a game of let's pretend And I whistle to the waves that lend me tears Purple clouds, golden rain Yesterday has gone And a dandelion dies in the wind And a dandelion dies in the wind And a dandelion dies in the wind
