He's just an ordinary man Never gonna live forever So he takes it where he can Too many nights without a day For the sake of being clever He almost lost his way He always thought that he could fly Till he was shot down from the sky You can't walk on water - don't try You can't walk on water - my my my They say there's ice inside his veins He's the man of a thousand faces Silver spoons and golden chains He thought his heart was made of steel But it never started pounding Till they strapped him to the wheel He always thought that he could fly Till he was shot down from the sky No matter what you try You can't walk on water - my my Can't walk on water - don't let me try Somebody said we'll make him strong He can give us all the answers Tell us right and show us wrong If you believe it, it's no lie And there is an end to summer 'Cause the winter makes it die We never looked above his head And so he missed the things that they said, yeah He always thought that he could fly Until they shot him from the sky No matter how you try You can't walk on water Can't burn the sun You can't walk on water Not anyone You can't, you can't, you can't You can't, you can't, walk on water
