Enough For Now

The daughters father watches, quietly we assume Hes not longer with us but he left this dusty room In your name and its an honor, its a shame but its your honor Take it on your shoulder til you can find another Thats enough for now, he shouldve never left you broken He shouldve held you, things your father never could do Thats enough for now, he wouldve never left you broken He wouldve held you, things your father never told you The century before you never could turn twenty one 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 thats enough for now, he shouldve never left you broken He shouldve held you, things your father never could do Thats enough for now, he wouldve never left you broken He wouldve held you, things your father never told you Breathing comes in pairs, except for twice One begins and ones goodbye Sixty years of sorrow, he got five or six of bliss Left my mothers mother without so much as a kiss But thats enough for now, he never wanted to leave you broken He wouldve held you, things your father never told you Thats enough for now, I wouldve never left you broken I wouldve 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 mothers mother without so much as a kiss
