that's why I wrote 'em a letter

This message is for you now
although I don't owe you an explanation
We're loading up our car now
and mapping out our course
I know this isn't what you wanted
but I want you to know that I love your daughter
If you want to know what happened
consider the source

Are you disappointed ?
she didn't live up to your expectations
It's just a shame your goals for her
were different than her own
She wanted to do what she wanted to do
but you told her to do it tomorrow
All those years inside your kingdom
made her step off of her throne

Now that she's finally free of you
There's no obligations to bring her down
She still loves you but it doesn't matter
til you learn to love her with the freedom that she's found

This message is for you now
if you want to know what happened
She doesn't wanna call you, tell you
that she is doing fine, doin' fine.
She always went so far to please you
that was never quite far enough, now, was it ?
Now you get to miss her smiling
as we cross the next state line

Now that she's finally free of you
There's none of your guilt trips to bring her down
She still loves you but it doesn't matter
til you learn to love her with the freedom that she's found

a dynamic ditty with familial drama, a son driving away with the daughter of a guy with High expectations, what a tangled web we weave, "that's why I wrote a letter..." tasty guitar work, good band vibe, the lead singer rocks .... kudos...
