She keeps on calling me
 I keep hanging up
 It's not that I don't want to talk
 I just fear listening
 As a child it worried me
 That all the ones I loved one day die
 I still recall when I realized
 I couldn't save them no matter how I tried
 I couldn't wait to be a man
 The grown-ups seemed to handle life just fine
 But here I am, still terrified
 See, growing up will just teach you how to smile
 I followed you from the sun in my childhood
 I followed you through the river to the sea
 I followed you where the waves turn to wasteland
 I followed you
 Now they follow me
 ♪
 As a child I felt too old
 And now when I'm grown-up I feel too young
 A different kind so I've been told
 Just slightly out of reach and out of time
 I count the years to understand
 The faces of the friends I used to know
 I close my eyes and they're still the same
 How to mourn the living that are still around
 Yet somehow gone

 I followed you from the sun in my childhood
 I followed you through the river to the sea
 I followed you where the roads turned to wasteland
 I followed you
 Now they follow me (yes)
 I followed you and the spring turned to summer
 I followed you and the river turned to sea
 I followed you, now the road's dressed for winter
 I followed you
 Now they follow me
 ♪
 I'm on my way now, way now
 I'm on my, on my way now
 I'm on my way now (way now)
 I'm on my way now (way now)

 I'm mostly doing fine
 They rarely see me cry
 But you are always on my mind
 I'll live another night
 I'll walk another mile
 But you are always on my mind
