lyrics

I was born my mother’s kin
Sweet and kind and gentle
Was all I ever wanted to be

Was all I ever knew to be
Wise and loyal and stable
’Til a shadow was cast on me

And yet I am still waiting after all this time
I hate that I’m still wanting after all this time


And you keep on updating
The ticking of the time
You think you’re updating
But along the while
Each daughter will be wiser

And you say you’re not changing,
You’re never growing up
You may be never changing
But along the while
Each daughter will be wiser

I was kept anticipating
Years and years on end
Spent leaning by the windowsill

Spent gazing up between the clouds
Lone and bored and helpless
’Til from the prison I broke free

And yet I am still waiting after all this time
I hate that I’m still wanting after all this time


And you keep on updating
The ticking of the time
You think you’re updating
But along the while
Each daughter will be wiser

And you say you’re not changing,
You’re never growing up
You may be never changing
But along the while
Each daughter will be wiser


I guess you haven’t noticed how much I have grown
You think you taught us how but we’re flying on our own
