78% H2o Lyrics - Reprieve - Ani Difranco

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 un 

Til 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
