I Won't Hold You Down

If I were to walk a hundred miles

If I were a stranger from another land

What would you say, what would you do

Would you lend me your hand?



Though I try to make you smile

At times I bring you no harmony

From where I stand, my point of view

I just want you to be happy



Chorus:

I won't hold you down

I won't hold you down

I will let you go, I won't pull you back

I think you know me better than that

I won't hold you down



I know I'm away most of the time

And I'm sorry for the price you've paid

If you must go, I'll understand

Please believe me when I say



Chorus:

I won't hold you down

I won't hold you down

I will let you go, I won't pull you back

I think you know me better than that

I won't hold you down



How you feel, and the road you choose

I hope that you succeed

But I thank you for the time we shared

And I'm sorry that you have to leave



Chorus:

I won't hold you down

I won't hold you down

I will let you go, I won't pull you back

I think you know me better than that

I won't hold you down
