dandylion and windowsill

She's my pretty autumn rose
blooming and blushing in a September pose
I sit in the coming winter of my content
pulling down the last summer sideshow tent
painting the sky a dark ocean blue
painting all my visions of you

Laying a dandylion on her windowsill
laying down beside her, her hair I feel
little toes tickling, ticking time away
softly I pull down the dawn of the day
to live serene in her topaz eyes
watch the candle moonlight as it dies

Hey pretty Pittsburgh rose
blooming up through the concrete rows
in the dark city night I found her
pulling down hopes of significant others
wearing a green sweater and a glassy smile
classy style going on for miles and miles

And might I suggest my affection
to caress your shining derelict sun
into a pretty autumn rose for me
so glad, so glad you chose me
over all those morons back home
I'm glad to keep you as my own

Pretty, pretty rose
pretty city overdose
on sweet summer honey
sweet darling scarlet sun
shines its soft warmth
on my pretty autumn rose
