CCT is right on... but I don't have a daughter, so it is real easy to turn the song into one about the person you love leaving you.
You knwo it's best for her to leave, but that it probably isn't nest for you. You try to be the stand-up guy and get in the way of her dreams, because you want her to be happy, you truly do. But everything inside you is screaming not to let her leave. But you put on a fake face, and you say what you "should" say, but it kills you.

Great job by BRC of making the song double-edged.
