I will daughter you,
follow you
wherever you may go
though ties may now be broken
love will not have it so
I will daughter you.
*
You won't be alone
I'll come too
however hard the road
together we will walk it
we'll share the heavy load
I will daughter you.
*
Never take my freedom from me
by sending me away
though they make of me a stranger
where I make my bed is where I will lay.
*
And if the night is cold
long and dark
my love will make you warm
and light the empty spaces
until the morning come
I will daughter you.
*
Follow you
I will daughter you.

If you have a friend who's a musician, consider converting this poem into a song.
