i knocked on your door
there was an answer
from an angel
she told me you had stepped outside
you dandelion
so i searched up the block
tried to find you in a rain drop
i've never seen the sky cry so hard
im still learning to grieve
in your arms
i fear love after love is
always scarred
well i loved you
before i knew you
while i was still learning
to breathe alone
i knew you before we met
but i am still learning to stand
on my own
she tastes like the sea
salted water dripping on me
i've swam in the flood too much before
well she picked up my chin
soothed the caution in my being
this song sounds different
she is kind
my dandelion
im still learning to grieve
in your arms
i fear love after love is
always scarred
well i loved you
before i knew you
while i was still learning
to breathe alone
i knew you before we met
but i am still learning to stand
on my own
we planted seeds too soon after winter
well i loved you
before i knew you
while i was still learning
to breathe alone
i knew you before we met
but i am still learning to stand
on my own
