Story behind the song
Most of Mayer's music resonates with me, but this one took my breath away. Whereas Mayer sings softly and imploringly, like a good boyfriend to a father, I intentionally sang this like a daughter to a father -- the direct connection that requires no soft-spoken words or tiptoeing about. A boyfriend runs that risk, of offending. A daughter doesn't. The relationship of a daughter and father is candid and real. Having had a wonderful father, and seeing those who haven't, I wanted to unapologetically pronounce Mayer's sage advice strongly and clearly through my vocals.
Lyrics
Fathers, be good to your Daughters Daughters will Love like you do Girls become lovers, who turn into mothers So Mothers, be good to your Daughters too
