Standing In The Way Songtext

You're not readyFor the world outsideYou keep pretending,but you just can't hideI know I said that I?dBe standing by your sideBut IYour path's unbeaten,And it's all uphillAnd you can meet it,But you never willAnd I?m the reason that you're standing stillBut II wish I could sayThe right wordsTo lead you through this landWish I could play the fatherAnd take you by the handWish I could stay hereBut now I understandI?m standing in the wayThe cries around you,You don't hear at all'Cause you know I?m hereTo take that callSo you just lie there whenYou should be standing tallBut II wish I couldLay your arms downAnd let you rest at lastWish I couldSlay your demonsBut now that time has passedWish I could stay hereYour stalwart, standing fastBut I'mStanding in the wayI?m just standingIn the way
