[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
Purple clouds, golden rain
Yesterday has gone
And a dandelion dies in the wind

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
Purple clouds, golden rain
Yestеrday has gone
And a dandelion dies in thе wind

[Verse 3]
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
