Lyrics The Fray – Enough For Now

The daughter’s father watches, quietly we assume
He’s no longer with us but he left this dusty room

In your name and it’s an honor
It’s a shame but it’s your honor

That’s enough for now
He should have never left you broken
He should have held you
Things your father never could do
That’s enough for now
He would have never left you broken
He would have held you
Things your father never told you

The century before you, never could turn 21
Years and years he waited, just watching for a son
For someone to go ahead, take the name he set
Years and years he waited, and a daughter came instead

But that’s enough for now
He should have never left you broken
He should have held you
Things your father never could do
That’s enough for now
He would have never left you broken
He would have held you
Things your father never told you

Breathing comes in pairs
Except for twice
One begins and one’s goodbye

60 years of sorrow, he got 5 or 6 of bliss

But that’s enough for now
He never wanted to leave you broken
He would have held you
Things your father never told you
That’s enough for now
I would have never left you broken
I would have held you
Things your father never could do
Words your father never told you

60 years of sorrow, he got 5 or 6 of bliss
Left my mother’s mother
Without so much as a kiss
