Lyrics

[00:33.55] I've often wondered if there's
[00:36.91] ever been a perfect family
[00:41.11] I've always longed for undividedness
[00:43.60] and sought stability
[00:48.09]
[00:51.32] A flower taught me how to pray
[00:55.21] but as I grew, that flower changed
[00:59.10] she started flailing in the wind
[01:01.80] like golden petals scattering
[01:06.42] (chorus1)and I miss you dandelion
[01:08.09] and even love you
[01:12.91]
[01:14.00] and I wish there was a way
[01:17.42] for me to trust you but it hurts me every time
[01:24.96] I try to touch you
[01:28.27]
[01:29.18] but I miss you dandelion
[01:32.43] and even love you
[01:35.83]
[01:38.35] I gravitated towards a patriarch
[01:42.67] so young predictably
[01:45.85] I was resigned to spend my lift
[01:49.60] with a maze of misery
[01:56.00] A boy and a girl befriended me
[01:59.84] we're bonded through despondency
[02:03.66] I stayed so long but finally
[02:07.44] I fled to save my sanity
[02:11.10] (chorus2)and I miss you little sis and little brother
[02:17.63]
[02:18.71] and I hope you realize
[02:22.00] I'll always love you
[02:26.32] and although you're struggling
[02:29.48] you will recover
[02:33.90] and I miss you little sis and little brother
[02:41.45]
[02:42.09] so many I considered
[02:46.03] closest to me
[02:49.07]
[02:49.68] turned on a dime and sold me
[02:53.68] out dutifully
[02:56.48]
[02:57.79] although that knife was chipping
[03:00.96] away at me they turned their eyes away and
[03:08.69] went home to sleep....
[03:14.85]
[03:16.44] (chorus3)and I missed a lot of life
[03:19.02] but I'll recover
[03:22.48]
[03:23.47] though I know you really like
[03:26.64] to see me suffer
[03:30.26]
[03:30.92] still I wish that you and I 'd
[03:34.47] forgive each other
[03:37.70]
[03:38.83] 'cause I miss you ,Valentine
[03:44.31] and really love you
[03:49.29] I really loved you
[03:51.68]
[03:54.33] I tried so hard
[03:56.41] but you drove me away
[04:00.07] to preserve my sanity
[04:02.99]
[04:03.81] and I found the strength
[04:05.80] to break away
[04:07.75] fly...
