(lyrics are written by Lainey)
Daughter's father watches,
Quietly we assume.
He's no longer with us,
But he left this dusty room.
It's your name and it's an honor,
It's a shame but it's your honor.
Take it on your shoulder,
Till you can find another.
That's enough for now,
He should've never have left you broken,
He should've held you.
Things your father never could do.
That's enough for now,
He would've never have left you broken,
He would've held you.
Things your father never told you.
A century before you,
Never could turn twenty-one.
Years and years he waited,
Just watchin for a son.
For someone to go ahead,
To 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 have left you broken,
He should've held you.
Things your father never could do.
That's enough for now,
He would've never have 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 five or six of bliss.
He left my mother's mother,
Without so much as a kiss.
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 woulda never have 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 five or six of bliss,
Left my mother's mother,
Without so much as a kiss.
Quietly we assume.
He's no longer with us,
But he left this dusty room.
It's your name and it's an honor,
It's a shame but it's your honor.
Take it on your shoulder,
Till you can find another.
That's enough for now,
He should've never have left you broken,
He should've held you.
Things your father never could do.
That's enough for now,
He would've never have left you broken,
He would've held you.
Things your father never told you.
A century before you,
Never could turn twenty-one.
Years and years he waited,
Just watchin for a son.
For someone to go ahead,
To 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 have left you broken,
He should've held you.
Things your father never could do.
That's enough for now,
He would've never have 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 five or six of bliss.
He left my mother's mother,
Without so much as a kiss.
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 woulda never have 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 five or six of bliss,
Left my mother's mother,
Without so much as a kiss.
