Petals - Mariah Carey (瑪麗亞·凱莉)

Lyrics by：Mariah Carey/James Harris, III/Terry Lewis/James Wright

I've often wondered if there's ever been a perfect family

I've always longed for undividedness

And sought stability

A flower taught me how to pray

But as I grew that flower changed

She started flailing in the wind

Like golden petals scattering

And I miss you dandelion

And even love you

And I wish there was a way

For me to trust you

But it hurts me every time

I try to touch you

But I miss you dandelion

And even love you

I gravitated towards a patriarch

So young predictably

I was resigned to spend my life

Within a maze of misery

A boy and a girl befriended me

We're bonded through despondency

I stayed so long but finally

I fled to save my sanity

And I miss you little sis and little brother

And I hope you realize

I'll always love you

Always love you

And although you're struggling you will recover

We're gonna make it maybe

And I miss you little sis and little brother

So many I considered closest to me

Turned on a dime and sold me out dutifully

Although that knife was chipping away at me

They turned their eyes away and went home to sleep

Sleep sleep sleep

And I missed a lot of life but I'll recover

Though I know you really like to see me suffer

Still I wish that you and I'd forgive each other

'Cause I miss you Valentine and really loved you

I really loved you

I guess I loved you

I tried so hard but you drove me away

To preserve my sanity

And I found the strength to break away

Do-do-do-do-do

Fly
