You never asked me what I wanted.
You only asked me why.
I never thought that so much trouble
Was restin` on my reply,
I could say it was the nights when I was lonely
And you were the only one who`d come.
I could tell you that I like your sensitivity,
When you know it`s the way that you walk.
Why do you have to say that there`s always someone
Who can do it better than I can?
But don`t you think that I know that walking on the water
Won`t make me a miracle man?
Baby`s gotta have the things she wants.
You know she`s gotta have the things she loves.
She`s got a ten-inch bamboo cigarette holder
And her black patent leather gloves.
And I`m doing everything just tryin` to please her,
Even crawling around on all fours.
Oh, I thought by now that it was gonna be easy,
But she still seems to want for more.
Why do you have to say that there`s always someone
Who can do it better than I can?
Don`t you think that I know that walking on the water
Won`t make me a miracle man?
Oh yeah
`Never given you a bad reputation
Just because you`ve never been denied.
You try to say you`ve done it all before.
Baby, you know that you just get tired.
Yet everybody loves you so much, girl.
I just don`t know how you stand the strain.
Oh, I-I`m the one who`s here tonight,
And I don`t wanna do it all in vain.
Why do you have to say that there`s always someone
Who can do it better than I can?
Don`t you think that I know that walking on the water
Won`t make me a miracle man?
Oh yeah
