Oldest Daughter versuri

Oldest Daughter lyrics by Makayla Lynn

Verse 1
Oldest daughter
Eyes of your father
Your mother’s temper
And her mother’s laugh

Lighter sleeper
Your brother’s keeper
First nest leaver
You feed yourself last

Walkin’ around with the world on your back

Chorus
When you and all the other kids are grown
When the bunkbeds and the swing sets are gone
You’ll all move on
But you’ll be the one
Who still don’t know
How to let go

Verse 2
Oldest daughter
Savin’ hot water
To make sure sister
Won’t get cold

Somewhat stoic
Somеtimes heroic
The onе who keeps rowing the boat

The trusted listener when secrets get told

Chorus
When you and all the other kids are grown
When the bunkbeds and the swing sets are gone
You’ll all move on
But you’ll be the one
Who still don’t know
How to let go

Bridge
You’re always gonna give more than you take
That firstborn ? spirit deep inside won’t ever change

Chorus
When you and all the other kids are grown
When the bunkbeds and the swing sets are gone
You’ll all move on
But you’ll be the one
Who still don’t know
How to let go

Outro
Oldest daughter
Oh, oldest daughter
Mmm
