The way I go is the only one I know
It's the only one I know
Here I go
Every hour is the next wave on the shore
Seeing new things, seeing more
Here I go again
Checking it out
The sea glass and the shells
The driftwood has its well-worn tales of glory
I am on my way, I'm coming along
On my way, I'm coming along
The story only knows
The story as it goes
So I'll be on my, I'll be on my way now
Folks will come with their protocols and proof
Like they're finally found the truth
Hey, we're getting by
I have paid just to walk their trail of clues
While my shadow buys the booze
Hey, we're getting by
Oh, we pack it all up
We turn the great design
Into the thinnest line
And then we plant a sign of right or wrongness
I am on my way, I'm coming along
On my way, I'm coming along
I marched along their path
I stopped and did the math
And now I know, I only have to, only have to ask
What do I see? What do I really see?
How did it go? How did it really go?
How does it feel, yeah, really feel?
It's something only I can really know myself
Over and over, I tell myself
The way I go can be best described as slow
Call it high art, could be low
And it's what I know
The tide comes in and my footprints disappear
But I was there and I am here
And it's what I know
I'm taking the time
These miles of sandy shore
Are gonna teach me more
I know what came before, I know some good things happened here
It might not be enough for anyone
Might not matter much to anyone
But it means something to me
It's just the way it goes, I go and
I am on my way, I'm coming along
On my way, she's coming along
So many things we say
Are beautiful in their own way
So I'll be on my, I'll be on my way now
