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
