Won't Stand in Your Way
Feel Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I won't try and make you smile
But if you're up for it just for a while
I won't stand in your way

Life is short and sometimes rough
But if you're up for not giving up
I won't stand in your way
You can let the bad days wash down the drain
You can lift your head up out of the rain
Look in the mirror and start again
I won't stand in your way

You can let the bad days wash down the drain
You can lift your head up out of the rain
Look in the mirror and start again
I won't stand in your way

Now you don't have to come with me
But if you wanna go where the birds fly free
I won't stand in your way

Life is short and sometimes rough
But if you're up for not giving up
I won't stand in your way





I won't stand in your way
I won't stand in your way
