Dandelion Wine
Hollies · Air That I Breathe [2000]
What else can I do?
I've been this way everyday
But now that we're through
Do I love you?
You can bet your life
That I do, do, do
Do I love you?
I would drink my wine
From your shoe, shoe, shoe
Stoned all the time on dandelion wine
It's all down to you
I've been this way everyday
I'm thinking of you
Do I love you?
You can bet your life
That I do, do, do
Do I love you?
I would drink my wine
From your shoe, shoe, shoe
Do I love you?
You can bet your life
That I do, do, do
Do I love you?
I would drink my wine
From your shoe, shoe, shoe
Stoned all the time, dandelion wine
What else can I do?
I've been this way everyday
Now that we're through
Stoned all the time, dandelion wine
What else can I do?
I've been this way everyday
Now that we're through
Stoned all the time, dandelion wine
Dandelion Wine - Hollies
Released on the Hollies' 2000 compilation Air That I Breathe, 'Dandelion Wine' stands as a poignant example of the band's mid-to-late period songwriting. While the Hollies are historically defined by their 1960s pop hits, this track reflects a more mature, reflective approach to composition. The song utilizes the band's signature harmonies to deliver a narrative about fleeting youth and the passage of time, a theme often explored in British folk-pop of the era. Its inclusion on a modern reissue highlights its enduring appeal and the group's ability to craft emotionally resonant material beyond their initial chart-topping success. The recording captures the essence of the Hollies' later catalogue, blending acoustic warmth with polished production.
