You never asked me what I wanted. You only asked me why.

I never thought that so much trouble was restin' on my reply,

say I it was could 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 say to 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 do can 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?
