Lyrics Wondrous Way - I Am Oak

Wondrous Way

That strange wondrous way
In which we age
But never really change
I come out unwound
From all I’ve ever come across
I’ve been walking
For an hour or so
Down a logging road
Nobody has come my way
I’m looking at the valley
From up on a dirt road
Searching for a way down
Back into town
To that strange wondrous place
Where I live
And spend my days
Free from change
Fine, draw a line
Through the landscape
And through our lives
And all that I have sung about
And all that I have stated
And all that I have questioned
And all that I have ever said
Remains unchanged
Unrestrained and uncontained
I’m free to change
A sound of wood splitting
Across a field
A treeline hides
What’s soon revealed
Something rustling
Through the brush or the canopy
It’s the sound of wood splitting
Across a field
A treeline hides
What’s soon revealed
Swaying grass that marks
The path
It got away
It got away
