 (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
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
 - 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
 (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
 60 years of sorrow, you got 5 or 6 of bliss
 Left my Mothers' mother
 Without so much as a kiss
