Josh Rouse - Women and Men lyrics

The current will rise much faster

Makes it harder to find what I'm after…

The water's up, water's 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

So, bottle up, bottle down, is how I live

The money's gone

Just one more song before I turn in.

But you won't see me

'Cause I won't be there to

Help you asleep when you get scared

It's the absence

You're afraid and the night

It approaches but I'm still a state away

Yeah, it's the absence; you're afraid…

I can't erase what the past is

It's time to face circumstances

Sun comes up, sun goes down and I begin

The days grow long as I trek on and I hate knowing…

That you won't see me

'Cause I won't be there to

Help you asleep when you get scared…

It's the absence; you're afraid and the night

It approaches, but I'm still a state away…

Yeah, it's the absence you're afraid…of the night…

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, you walk out and we smile again…

The grass needs cut, cuddled up just woman and man…
