Hold You Here

In your rush

to take on that new horizon

don’t forget about me back here

still trying to catch my breath

I want so badly

to stand beside you

as you face these challenges head on

but I’m starting to wonder

if it’s even worth trying to keep up

I don’t what I bring

to the table anyway

I just know I’d kill for a seat

but I’d only slow you down

and I refuse to be an albatross

so tired of the sacrifice

I’m not afraid to bleed

but there’s no point in the letting

when you’re capable of fighting your own battles

much better than I could ever dream of

all I can do is stand back and stand by

and hope on those occasions

you come back around this way

that I can be worth slowing down for

even for a moment

because I’ll never be enough

to hold you here
