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
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 cleaning up the mess he made
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
Boys, you can break
You'll 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 guide and the weight of her world
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
So, mothers be good to your daughters too
So, mothers be good to your daughters too
