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 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 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 every day is fast or slow Call it high art, could be low And it's what I know 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 and 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 It going I'm 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
