The Fray - Enough for now.
The daughter's father watches,
quietly we assume
He's no longer with us
but he left this dusty room
In your name and it's an honor,
it's a shame but it's your honour
Take it on your shoulder
til you can find another
That's enough for now,
he should've never left you broken
He should've held you,
things your father never could do
That's enough for now,
he would've never left you broken
He would've held you,
things your father never told you
The century before you
never could turn 21
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 that's enough for now,
he should've never left you broken
He should've held you, things your father never could do
That's enough for now,
he would've never 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 5 or 6 of bliss
Left my mother's mother
without so much as a kiss
But thats 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 would've never 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 5 or 6 of bliss
Left my mother's mother
without so much as a kiss.
