Sanoja: Josh Rouse. Other. Women And Men.

The current will rise much faster,
makes it harder to find what I'm after...

The water's up, the waters down and I can't swim...
when I am lost and you are not then no one wins...

Our babies have known no father,
makes it harder to call...
I don't bother...
bottle up, bottle down, is how I live...
the moneys' gone
just one more song before I turn in...

But you won't see me because
I won't be there to help you asleep when you get scared
it's the absence, you're afraid
and the night it's approaches
but I'm still a state away...
scared, it's the absence your afraid...

I can't erase what the past is,
it's time to face circumstances..
as the sun comes up, the sun goes down
and I begin
the days grow long as I trek on
and I hate knowing...

That you won't see me because
I won't be there to help you asleep when you get scared
it's the absence, you're afraid
and the night approaches but I'm still a state away...
scared, it's the absence your afraid...
of a fight...
we're surviving but it's still from day to day...

It's nice to come home for a weekend...
the children have grown, how I've missed them...

As I pull up and you walk out
we smile again...
the grass needs cut,
cuddled up just woman and man...
