Song for Daughters Songtext
von Stephen Kellogg

This is a song for our daughters
Cause there′s some things that they need to hear

Now we never know when it's our time to go
So let me be perfectly clear

You′re gonna win, you're gonna lose
You're gonna walk yourself around in your shoes

Til′ maybe one day it′s you who will say

Don't be too hard on yourselves

You don′t have to be somebody else

On the days when you most want to give up the ghost

Don't be too hard, don′t be too hard on yourselves

Girl everyone wants to be beautiful, everyone looks in the mirror
And sees things they would change, feels some sort of pain
But I see your beauty so clear
It's in the way that you light up
When you are doing the things that you love
Just how you are, that′s the best part

So don't be too hard on yourselves


You don't have to be somebody else
On the days when you most want to give up the ghost
Don′t be too hard, don′t be too hard on yourselves

And if Venus should smile down upon you
And you're lucky enough to find love
Give it all that you′ve got, 'cause good love takes a lot
And pray that that love is enough
And if it′s not, how it can hurt, it's so much less than you deserve
If you′re there one day, you'll hear me say
Don't be too hard on yourselves
You don′t have to be nobody else
On the days when you most want to give up the ghost
Don′t be too hard, don't be too hard
So don′t be too hard on yourselves
You don't have to be somebody else
On the days when you most want to give up the ghost
Don′t be too hard, don't be too hard on yourselves

This is a song for my daughters

Don′t be too hard, don't be too hard on yourselves
