Ani Difranco 78% H2o Lyrics

78% H2o Lyrics

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
