It's been rumored that the 'dandelion' is Mariah's older sister Alison, who had problems with drug abuse, got pregnant at an early age, etc. "Valentine" was Tommy Mottola's old stage name when he sang (YES, he did. ha ha I have no idea if he was good in any way). The "boy and girl" are harder to figure out.
The song is about the fact that, although Mariah loves these people, the circumstances between them have made things difficult.

@EyesOnly The boy and girl Mariah references are her step kids with Tommy.
