There's nothing like the sound of moving water There's nothing like the waves across your feet The whistle of a sycamore in autumn It's probably gonna outlive you and me Is that the way, is that the way Is that the way you start to feel when you get older Is that the way, is that the way Is that the way you start to feel when you ain't young anymore There's a river in the chaos of a holiday There's a sadness in the joy of New Year's Eve There's a quiet in the noise of the highway What was lonely then is now a gift it seems Is that the way, is that the way Is that the way you start to feel when you get older Is that the way, is that the way Is that the way you start to feel when you ain't young anymore There's a range of separation that keeps us moving forward Even though the past is right behind There's a truth in frustration that keeps us in our corners While the world waits for us to find That is the way, that is the way That is the way you start to feel when you get older That is the way, that is the way That is the way you start to feel when you ain't young That is the way, that is the way That is the way you start to feel when you get older That is the way, that is the way That is the way you start to feel when you ain't young anymore You ain't young anymore
