"Daughters lyrics"

I know a girl 
She puts the color inside of my world 
But she's just like a maze 
Where all of the walls all continually change 
And I've done all I can  
To stand on the steps with my heart in my hands 
Now I'm 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 who turn into mothers 
So mothers be good to your daughters too 
 
Oh you see that skin? 
It's the same she's been standing in  
Since the day she saw him walking away 
Now she's left with cleaning up the mess he made 
So 
 
(chorus) 
 
Boys you can break 
You find out how much they can take 
Boys will be strong  
And boys soldier on 
But boys would be gone without warmth 
From a woman's good, good, heart. 
 
On behalf of every man 
Looking out for every girl 
You are the God and the weight of her world 
So 
 
(chorus)
