[Verse 1]
Tiny shoes by the front door
Glitter stuck in the hallway rug
Cartoons loud on a Sunday
Cereal bowls that never get put up
You’re asking me a thousand questions
About the moon and where it goes at day
I’m trying hard to fold this moment
So it never
Ever blows away
[Chorus]
Daughters of mine
You’re racing the sunrise
Learning to read your own hearts
Not just the stop signs
I’ll stand in the doorway
Every time you cross that line
Go chase every sky you find
Daughters of mine
[Verse 2]
One of you paints on the window
One of you dances in the sink
You argue over the same sweater
Then share it closer than you think
You say you want your own adventure
You say you can’t wait to drive
I keep seeing kindergarten
Every time you roll your eyes
[Chorus]
Daughters of mine
You’re racing the sunrise
Learning to read your own hearts
Not just the stop signs
I’ll stand in the doorway
Every time you cross that line
Go chase every sky you find
Daughters of mine
[Bridge]
When the world feels heavy
And the room gets small
Call me in the quiet
You can say it all
If your courage ever trembles
Lean on these old hands
I’ll still be your biggest fan (oh yeah)
Long after all this sand
[Chorus]
Daughters of mine
You’re racing the sunrise
Learning to read your own hearts
Past all the stop signs
I’ll stand in the doorway
Every time you cross that line
Go write out your own bright lives
I’ll be right here every time
Daughters of mine
