hour follows hour   like water follows water   everything is governed by the rule   of one thing leads to another   you can't really place blame   cuz blame is much to messy   some was bound to get on you   while you were tryin to put it on me   and don't fool yourself   into thinking things are simple   nobody's lying still the stories don't line up   why do you try to hold on   to what you'll never get a hold on   you wouldn't try to put the ocean   in a paper cup   cuz i have had something to prove   as long as i know thers something   that needs improvment   and you know that every time i move   i make a woman's movement   and first you decide   what you've gotta do   then you go out and do it   and maybe the most we can do   then you go out and do it   and maybe the most we can do   is just to see eachother through it   hour follows hour like water in a river   and from one to the next   we don't know what each hour will deliver   we just call it like we see it   call it out loud as we can   and then afterwards we call it all water over the dam   maybe the moral higher ground   ain't as high as it seems   maybe we are both good people   done some bad things   i just hope it was okay   i know it wasn't perfect   i hope in the end we can laugh   and say it was all worth it   cuz i have had something to prove   as long as i know something   that needs improvement   and you know that everytime i move   i make a woman's movement   and first you decide what you've gotta do   then you go out and do it   and maybe the most that we can do   is just to see eachother through it   we make our own gravity to give weight to things   then things fall and they break and gravity sings   we can only hold so much is what i figure   try and keep our eye on the big picture   picture keeps getting bigger   and too much is how i love you   but too well is how i know you   and i've got nothing to prove this time   just something to show you   i guess i just wanted you to see   that it was all worth it to me
