Rachel Wahlig - Daughter Daughter Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Father, father, loves his daughter,
  • who does tell him woods have caught her?
  • Boughs and branches with their dances
  • fill her eyes and soon enchants her.
  • Back of hedgerows, round bright meadows,
  • trees grow green and cast long shadows,
  • youth soon over, each beat closer,
  • but break her heart and she'll grow no older.
  • Heed the cost and she the cause,
  • the woodsman seeks what would be lost,
  • where our feets pressed, come, you grasses,
  • rise again to hide our passes.
  • In false tracks with torch and axe,
  • but ever further from known pass,
  • made to choose, the forest trips will
  • gain in measure as they lose.
  • (Refrain: Third Verse with last two lines of verse two)
  • Late he sees where love can be,
  • mercy never grew on trees,
  • law, not kindness, time, not violence,
  • first the wait – and then, the silence.
  • Daughter, daughter, killed her father,
  • look at what his blood has bought her...
