Alan Parsons
Obstacles
[Verse 1]
Obstacles great and small
Stand in my path to form a wall
And challenge me to find another way
If I were a constable
Answering your call
I'd never see these obstacles at all
And walk through them like puddles in the rain

[Verse 2]
Obstacles that gather here
Laugh in my face and taunt my fears
And tower like a mountain to the sky
If I were an architect
With a vision and a plan
All barriers would fall at my command
Till life before these obstacles began

[Verse 3]
If I were a scientist
With equations in my brain
I'd calculate these obstacles away
And smash through them like puddles in the rain
And every motivation, every undertaking
Feeds a passion for a phase
Where hopefully your sympathy awaits
Where obstacles were gone as yesterday

[Instrumental Outro]
