Intro

(Verse 1)

The Daughters' Father watches, quiet ly we assume

He's no longer with us but he left this dusty room

And your name it's an honor

It's a shame but it's your honor

To take it on your shoulder

'til you can find another

Chorus

That's enough for now

He should have never left you broken

He should have held you

Things your Father never told you

That's enough for now

He would have never left you broken

He would have held you

Things your Father never could do

Verse 2

- same progression as verse 1

The century before me, never could turn 21

Years and years he waited, just watching for a son

someone to go ahead, to take the name instead

Years and years he waited, then a daughter came instead

Chorus

(Bridge)

Breathing comes in pairs

Except for twice

One begins and one's goodbye

60 years of sorrow, you got 5 or 6 of bliss

Left my mothers' mother

Without so much as a .....

kiss As a kiss

Chorus

60 years of sorrow, you got 5 or 6 of bliss

Left my Mothers' mother

Without so much as a kiss
