While I did the limit in your daughter's car
She confessed it all to me
You don't know the weight of all the words you say
I don't know why, but she holds each one close to heart

You're wasting your time
You won't change a thing
She's rolling her eyes
But you swear all the same
That girl will find her way

While I'm the one who watches empty bottles hit the ground
You're the one who brings her down
We were breaking habits until you stepped in
And one by one, one by one, you have fixed them all

You're wasting your time
You won't change a thing
She's rolling her eyes
But you swear all the same
That girl will find her way
That girl will find her way

Will find her way and see the reason why you say those things
And read between the lines
Well, I know in the instant when I see her smile
We'll find a brighter day
That girl will find her way
One, two, three, four

I was doing ninety in your daughter's car
She was faking fast asleep
You don't know the weight of all the words you say
But I've had time to think
