Dandelion Lyrics
Let me tell you how this all came to be
A yellow flower with your pedals to the air
And flying on paper wings that brought you here
Summer rolls on in the lazy hours
An ether dream way
Of hummingbirds and clouds
Midnight swims in the cool back waves
And you in my arms as it rolls away
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
Oh oh
All of your tomorrows shine
Oh oh
All of your tomorrows shine
Playing games down inside your soft warm world
Hear my voice I know that you can
You’re the fire in my eyes
The sun as a man
Seasons come along and seasons go
And what they’ll leave behind
I don’t pretend to know
I’m afraid that all I have missed
Will loom very large when the darkness lifts
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
Wherever you go
I won’t run I won’t hide
Just letting you know
Let your heart keep time
Now the clouds are gone
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine
All of your tomorrows shine

Thanks for the lyrics xinnieful. Its a great song.
Born of restless night the moon as a pearl Playing games down inside your soft warm world Hear my voice I know that you can You’re the fire in my eyes The sun as a man
I think of a parent thinking about an unborn child when I hear this.

Born of restless night the moon as a pearl Playing games down inside your soft warm world Hear my voice I know that you can You’re the fire in my eyes The sun as a man Seasons come along and seasons go And what they’ll leave behind I don’t pretend to know I’m afraid that all I have missed Will loom very large when the darkness lifts
I adore that part of the song, makes me think of looking for love in the wrong places, but finding something good all the same.. Darkness comes from circumstance, but the love is there and it's good.. I adore the dandelion allusion to..

I wish I had put two 'o's on the last one.. Oops.. I adore this song. It fills me with a sense of relief I hear this song as a reminder that everything comes around, so ride it out. Wonderful. And the new day at the other side of sadness. It is amazing. Thinking of shining tomorrows in a war torn world is a little bit of peace that I hope everyone has enough time for.

Little dandelion Let your heart keep time
Beautiful part about how his girl can keep time with her heart cuz she is so dependable.

This song could be about a girl, but i also think it could be about one's children. I dunno if Chris Cornell has any kids, but if he has one i think it would be for them.
Born of restless night the moon as a pearl

Hmm I don't get what hellswindstaff says about this song out it at all.. I think that way when I hear Sugar by Heather Nova, or Tiptoe by Ani D. But this song, not so much.. Interesting thoughts there..
I do like the way Chris has the Seasons come and Seasons go, because that is the song that started my Cornell fandom for sure.. And the inside of OoE says that he ahs daughters.

I think about a parent and a Child.
Chris does have kids. Two daughters I think...

Since I first heard this song, I've always seen it as the feeling you get from your son/daughter. That feeling that they are the world and that you'd do anything for them.

I think its about his kids

Ok that was completely pointless led zeppelin, thanks there for the great input(sarcasm).
Ok I didn't really think of kids or girls when i hear this song, i think of being a little kid myself, with no cares in the world, when I just looked for the beautiful things in the world and time seemed to stand still
