Holding On

Sit down son, I know that you're probably too young
Your world is still only as big as your homes back yard
But time goes fast, it catches you when you look back
You won't believe all the people, they come and they go

And as I watched you come alive, part of me died
And I held you through the night, I watched you cry
I am holding on
I'm still holding on

So make the most
Take pictures of all of those ghosts
And don't be afraid to go down a road you don't know

And as you grow
I'll show you all that I know
But one day will come when you're gonna have to stand on your own

And as I watched you come alive
Part of me died
And I held you through the night
I watched you cry
I am holding on
I'm still holding on

Sit down son
When I look back at all that I've done
There's not a day I would change cause it led me to now

So I wrote this down
Though I haven't quite figured it out
'Cause I won't be the same person next year
As I am right now

And as I watched you come alive
Part of me died
And I held you through the night
I watched you cry
I am holding on
I am holding on
And I'm still holding on
