[ Verse 1 ] It’s midnight. I cannot sleep. The house is quiet. I’m in too deep. My daughters are resting In their beds. They’re getting older. They’re in my head. [ Pre-Chorus ] I need them. But do they still need me? They may not. Please, let me be-lieve. [ Chorus ] Should I keep them close? Not let go? Keep them safe. Can I though? I hope so. [ Verse 2 ] Don’t they know I’m on their side? I’m here to listen? To confide? They’re into their friends now. More than me. Should I fight it? Or let them be. [ Verse 3 ] She’s so sweet. She looks like me. She’s smarter. Calmer. Then I could ever be. She’s unique. Though she acts like me. She’s bolder. Stronger. Then I could ever be. [ Bridge ] What ( the hell ) Did she see? It remains a mystery To me. Just lucky, I guess. Lucky me. [ Pre-Chorus ] I need them. But do they still need me? They may not. Let me be-lieve. [ Chorus ] Should I keep them close? Not let go? Keep them safe. Can I though? I hope so. But I just don't know. [ Outro ] Faith in that I raised them right. Their roots are strong. Their future, bright. To love them means to set them free With or without ….me.
