lyrics

i saw him looming large in a room i only knew as a boy. he was young and he was strong and his voice, oh my god, it was so loud! "i am one, now, with the way!" he cried, "i am one, now, with the way, my son. i do not know how, i cannot say just what i have become. i am one, now, with the way!"

my grandad, he came to me in my dreams, only a matter of days after he had died. when you are no longer alive, you are larger than life. he was no longer alive. he was larger than life!

screaming down the road, in an old model T, you wouldn't believe the speed, the dust, the smoke, the sound! he had gladness in his eyes. he pointed at the sky. he took a good long look at me before he tore outa town"

"i am one, now, with the way!" he cried, "i am one, now, with the way, my son. i do not know how, i cannot say just what i have become. i am one, now, with the way!"

we will not be lost down here. we will not be lost!

we are one now with the way.
