Lyrics
Intro ===== Verse 1 ======= I know a girl she puts the colour inside my world Shes just like a maze where all of the walls are continually changed i’ve done all i can to stand on the steps with my heart in my hands Now im starting to see maybe its got nothing to do with me Chorus ====== Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers and turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too. Interlude ========= Oh you see that skin It's the same shes been standing in Since the day she saw him walking away now she's left cleaning up the mess he made Chorus ====== Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers and turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too. Bridge ====== boys you can break find out how much they can take boys will be strong and boys soldier on but boys would be gone without warmth of a woman's good good heart outro ===== on behalf of every man looking out for every girl you are the god and the weight of her world on behalf of every man who's looking out for every girl you are the god and you are the weight of her world chorus ====== Fathers be good to your daughters Daughters will love like you do Girls become lovers and turn into mothers So mothers be good to your daughters too. so mothers be good to your daughters too so mothers be good to your daughters too so mothers be good to your daughters too
