The daughter's father watches, quietly we assume He's not longer with us but he left this dusty room In your name and it’s an honor, it’s a shame but it’s your honor Take it on your shoulder til you can find another
That's enough for now, he should've never left you broken He should've held you, things your father never could do That's enough for now, he would've never left you broken He would've held you, things your father never told you
The century before you never could turn 21 Years and years he waited just watching for a son For someone to go ahead, take the name he said Years and years he waited and a daughter came instead
But that's enough for now, he should've never left you broken He should've held you, things your father never could do That's enough for now, he would've never left you broken He would've held you, things your father never told you
Breathing comes in pairs Except for twice One begins and one's goodbye
Sixty years of sorrow he got 5 or 6 of bliss Left my mother’s mother without so much as a kiss
But that's enough for now, he never wanted to leave you broken He would've held you, things your father never told you That's enough for now, I would've never left you broken I would've held you, things your father never could do Words your father never told you
Sixty years of sorrow, he got 5 or 6 of bliss Left my mother's mother without so much as a kiss
