Hour Follows Hour

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
