Holding on to time

Times going so fast girl I just want to make it last.
If I could do anything stopping time right here would be my task.
I'm counting the seconds as they leave.
I'm watching the clock about to take a knee.
Girl I have to stop the play.
Father time is taking the only thing I want with you away.
You be snapping and lord knows sometimes you be tripping.
Hell I dont even know sometimes the reason.
But I'm always here when you come back to your senses.
We might not be where we want to be but it is in the distance.
Love is an one way street so dont turn around.
I know things go south but when you've been east, north, and west you can't dwell on the south.
We have seen so many struggles.
But its nothing love can't fix so I know you're worth the trouble.
I know I haven't always been the man to call a king.
Lord knows I have been counting blessings and learning lessons to be the man of your dreams.
The tears you have shed wont go in vain.
For the rest of our lives let me hold you through the pain.
