We wade in and out, this span is but a blink Slow to step but real sure to move on And on and on Slow to step but sure
I see my old grays are all now black and white The fence that I sat on could only be wrong or right Wrong or right All my grays are black and white
I always thought I knew me best All my turns were drivable But as I see my life before me I am exposed Accounting what's accountable
As the world shakes it on down Some learn to dance and others just drown I can see that now, see it now The world will shake you down
It all comes back in waves Every scrap of thought in detail Every second of every day is so familiar It seems like only yesterday
I... Rode around the block on two wheels for the first time Played tag in the dark and stayed up all night Saw lightening bugs and sparklers dance madly in the evening Felt so young I could jump the moon
It's all before me now I'm the one, I'm the one, I am the one for the show
We ride the flow of momentum we make We rise to fall and fall to rise Slow to step, slow to step We ride the flow we wake
I built in the sand Stole my first kiss Was king of the hill Rode my bike with no hands
One for the all the money One for the show One to get ready And one to go
Paid with a coin From my polyester pocket Threw the slug Back into the gutter
