If you overseed with grass seed it will. Grass and clover makes a really nice sward. When I had a lawn (more than 10 years ago!), I eventually realised the beauty of this. Mix in camomile for an even lusher, softer lawn. Let it grow long enough for the clover and camomile to flower and it's amazing. The longer grown inhibits other weeds. It's practically maintenance free -- just run over it with a push mower every once in a while.
