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
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
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
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
But I won't be the same person next year
As I am right now
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
