Standing Lyrics


Well, there could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much, well, I'll never know
Three days under my belt
And I can't remember the last thing you said
But you were 15 inches away from me when you said it
You mumbled something 'bout you and me
The land of the free under the same breath
Well, I already knew, I already knew you were fading
There could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much, well, I'll never know
'Cause I'm already standing here on my own
And I don't understand it baby, just what went wrong
Three days under my belt
And I'm staring at the ceiling once again

And your closure is just ripping me wide open
And I wanna scream
But I know it won't bring you back to me
So your independence wins
I hope you're finding out what the hell that is
And there could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much, well, I'll never know
'Cause I'm already standing here on my own
I don't understand it baby, just what went wrong
Don't you look for me, don't you cry for me 'cause I'm alright
Something new begins when something ends
Well, I'm alright 'cause it's what you gotta do
Just, so you understand, I'm standing, I'm standing
But there could've been a better way
But you had to push me away to be alone
How come the things that I can't touch
Are the things that hurt so much, well, I'll never know
And I shoulda tried to change your mind
But I didn't feel you still were mine, so I let it go
I'm already standing here on my own
And I don't understand it baby, just what went wrong
So take one good look at me before you move on
I'm standing, I'm standing, I'm standing, I'm standing where I belong

Dave Hollister, cousin of music act K-Ci and JoJo, started developing fame as a musician in the early 1990s. Some of his biggest early appearances were with 2Pac on tracks like "Brenda's Got A Baby."

His next big move was when he was signed to Teddy Riley's R&B group BLACKstreet in 1994. He worked with the group on their first album and then left the group to pursue his own solo career. He was signed to DreamWorks Records and began working on an album.

In 1999, Hollister released his first albumm, Ghetto Hymns. The album was successful, going gold, and creating one hit single, "My Favorite Girl." "My Favorite Girl" reached #10 on the R&B charts.

Hollister's follow-up album, Chicago '85... The Movie was released in 2000. The album was an autobiographical work and went gold. "One Woman Man" the album's biggest single, reached #8 on the R&B charts.

For his third effort, Hollister moved to Motown Records. He hoped the new label would instill new energy into his music. The album, Things In the Game Done Changed was released in 2002 and faired poorly on the charts and radio.

As a result of the album's shortcomings, Hollister returned to DreamWorks where he released Real Talk in 2003. Following the album's release, Hollister moved to Gospo Centric.

Hollister is reportedly wrapping up his fifth album in the industry, The Book of David: Vol. 1 The Transition. The album will be coming out on September 26, 2006 from Gospo Centric.
