Fray - Enough For Now lyrics

rate me

The daughter's father watches, quietly we assume<br />

He's not longer with us but he left this dusty room<br />

In your name and it's an honor, it's a shame but it's your honor<br />

Take it on your shoulder 'til you can find another<br />

<br />

That's enough for now, he should've never left you broken<br />

He should've held you, things your father never could do<br />

That's enough for now, he would've never left you broken<br />

He would've held you, things your father never told you<br />

<br />

The century before you never could turn twenty one<br />

Years and years he waited, just watching for a son<br />

For someone to go ahead and take the name he said<br />

Years and years he waited and a daughter came instead<br />

<br />

But that's enough for now, he should've never left you broken<br />

He should've held you, things your father never could do<br />

That's enough for now, he would've never left you broken<br />

He would've held you, things your father never told you<br />

<br />

Breathing comes in pairs, except for twice<br />

One begins and one's goodbye<br />

Sixty years of sorrow, he got five or six of bliss<br />

Left my mother's mother without so much as a kiss, as a kiss<br />

<br />

But that's enough for now, he never wanted to leave you broken<br />

He would've held you, things your father never told you<br />

That's enough for now, I would've never left you broken<br />

I would've held you, things your father never could do<br />

Words your father never told you<br />

<br />

Sixty years of sorrow, he got five or six of bliss<br />

Left my mother's mother without so much as a kiss<br /><br />
