	Story Behind the Song In the early fall of 2000 my then four year old daughter Moyra and I were driving past a 7/11 on the way to Grandma Nikki’s house when she blurted out “ I see you in dandelions daddy”. I proceeded to tell her that was silly, but she insisted. “No daddy, it’s true. I see you in dandelions, and Kali saw you too!”{Kali is my niece and my daughters buddy} That statement from my daughter {and the conviction behind it} swirled around in my head for a couple of days. And then on a Saturday evening I sat down with my acoustic guitar, and the song just came out. The simple words from my daughter were a turning point in my recovery. I see it as divine intervention. The story of the dandelion, which after dying and being spread across the skies yet coming back stronger than ever, became my story. A rebirth. And my daughters’ innocence, grace and non-judgmental attitude toward others made me {and still does} take a long hard look at myself. I am forever grateful that Moyra is in my life. The CD “ICU In Dadylions” is dedicated to her and is a diary of my thoughts and feelings throughout the last very interesting two years. I hope that if you find a bit of your story in mine, that this CD would be one of hope and connection. People can change. And love is the answer. Lyrics ICU In Dandylions Words and Music: Regan L. Barger Copyright 2002{ASCAP} She has eyes that mimic mine, her mouth is like her moms’ Sometimes when I hear her speak I know that I hear God. And in the backseat of my car there are secrets that she tells When I hear her innocence I know how far I fell. ICU In Dandylions, it’s true. ICU In Dandylions it’s true. “ Daddy I know it was you, and I know Kali saw you too.” When we go to bed at night I touch her tiny face She asks me can we say our prayers I am humbled by her grace. In the darkness of my room there are secrets that she tells When I hear her innocence It casts a magic spell ICU In Dandylions, it’s true. ICU In Dandylions it’s true. “ Daddy I know it was you, and I know Kali saw you too.”
