Verse 1

I see you standing here

But you’re so far away

Starving for your attention

You don’t even know my name

You’re going through so much

But I know that I could be the one to hold you

Chorus

Every single day

I find it hard to say

I could be yours alone

You will see someday

That all along the way

I was yours to hold

I was yours to hold

Verse 2

I see you walking by

Your hair always hiding your face

I wonder why you’ve been hurting

I wish I had some way to say

You’re going through so much

Don’t you know that I will be the one to hold you

(Chorus x1)

Bridge

I’m stretching but you’re just out of reach

You should know

I’m ready when you’re ready for me

And I’m waiting for the right time

For the day I catch your eye

To let you know

That I’m yours to hold

(Chorus x2)
