Lyrics:
Giles:
You're not ready for the world outside,
You keep pretending but you just can't hide
I know I said that I'd be standing by your side,
But I
Your path's unbeaten and it's all uphill,
You can meet it but you never will
And I'm the reason you're standing still,
But I
I wish I could say the right words,
To lead you through this land
Wish I could play the father,
And take you by the hand
Wish I could stay,
But now I understand
I'm standing in the way
The cries around you you don't hear at all,
Cause you know I'm here to take that call
So you just lie there when you should be standing tall
But I
I wish I could lay your arms down,
And let you rest at last
Wish I could slay your demons,
But now that time has passed
Wish I could stay,
Your stalwart standing fast
But I'm standing in the way,
I'm just standing in the way
Buffy:
Did you just say something?
You're not ready for the world outside,
You keep pretending but you just can't hide
I know I said that I'd be standing by your side,
But I
Your path's unbeaten and it's all uphill,
You can meet it but you never will
And I'm the reason you're standing still,
But I
I wish I could say the right words,
To lead you through this land
Wish I could play the father,
And take you by the hand
Wish I could stay,
But now I understand
I'm standing in the way
The cries around you you don't hear at all,
Cause you know I'm here to take that call
So you just lie there when you should be standing tall
But I
I wish I could lay your arms down,
And let you rest at last
Wish I could slay your demons,
But now that time has passed
Wish I could stay,
Your stalwart standing fast
But I'm standing in the way,
I'm just standing in the way
Buffy:
Did you just say something?
