Lyrics of Daughters - Live in Philadelphia, PA & Hartford, CT, August 2004 by John Mayer

verse

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 her steps with my heart in my hands
Now I'm starting to see
Maybe it's 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

verse

Oh now, I trust you seen that skin
It's the same she's been standing in
Since the day she saw him walking away
Now I'm left
Cleaning up the mess he made

chorus

So 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

bridge

Boys, you can break
You'll find out how much they can take
Boys will be strong
They soldier on
But boys would be gone without warmth from
A woman's, from a, from a woman's, from a woman's good, good heart

verse

On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world

verse

On behalf of every man
Looking out for every girl
You are the god and the weight of her world

chorus

So 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

outro

So mothers, be good to your daughters too

outro

So mothers, be good to your daughters too.
Writer(s): John Clayton Mayer
