lyrics

I watched you smile from behind the stage
You couldn't fake the pride upon your face
You played the violin while your daughter sang a hymn
And the audience cried out for more again

She was a babe when you taught her to dance
And when you put a guitar into her hands
Now she's full-grown, getting ready to leave home
And I heard our children aren't our own

And that, in life's great yearning for itself
It brings forth children in good health
And we may guide but never own
She's the arrow, you're the bow
And the archer is unknown

I watched you smile from behind the stage
I smiled as well but there was pain upon my face
For I felt the pride with you, but also this is true
I thought: "Here is a joy I'll never know"
"Here is a joy I'll never know"
"Here is a joy I'll never know"
