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
