JOHN MAYER LYRICS





"Daughters"





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 the warmth from


A womans good, good heart





On behalf of every man


Looking out for every girl


You are the god 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 [x3]

Isn't this the answer to many of our problems?
Yes, if every person had the benefit of good parenting it would solve a great many problems.





It's a lovely thought, even if it isn't realistic.
Reply:yeah right, put artists in charge of everything.
Reply:Yes it is a great answer to many of our problems. It is very true that having a good relationship with mom and dad when young educates young girls to love themselves, and how to be loved in a healthy relationship. I think John Mayer writes alot about things that make the world better. Accept for "body is a wonderland", but he is sure hot singing it!
Reply:So what you're saying is, parents should be good to their children? Seems plausible to me. But men are not the gods of girls' worlds.
