Testo: Ani Difranco. Reprieve. 78% H2O.
When the joy had left your body
And you were locked in, to your own thoughts
You used to love to sit by the water
And watch it lapping on the rocks
And every time you put your feet in
You'd cry out and you would pray
But it's all downhill from here, baby
So naturally, I can't stay
First you'll roll your eyes to Heaven
Say you never had love so divine
But it will go from 'More than ever'
To 'Not enough' in no time
You will push and you will push
Until you push me away
I hear you cry out for your water
And I know you'll curse it someday
I guess for me, there's been a few
Who've walked up smiling and drawn a line
Between so far and from now on
Yes, a big glowing line in time
And I've been disappointed
I've been heartbroken
Yes, I too have loved from afar
But we are 78% water
Even our pumping hearts
And you were locked in, to your own thoughts
You used to love to sit by the water
And watch it lapping on the rocks
And every time you put your feet in
You'd cry out and you would pray
But it's all downhill from here, baby
So naturally, I can't stay
First you'll roll your eyes to Heaven
Say you never had love so divine
But it will go from 'More than ever'
To 'Not enough' in no time
You will push and you will push
Until you push me away
I hear you cry out for your water
And I know you'll curse it someday
I guess for me, there's been a few
Who've walked up smiling and drawn a line
Between so far and from now on
Yes, a big glowing line in time
And I've been disappointed
I've been heartbroken
Yes, I too have loved from afar
But we are 78% water
Even our pumping hearts
