Walk On Water

Here i am as i have been so many times before

Looking back across the water

To my house upon the shore

Turning 'round and 'round again

To face the open air

Bewildered by the here

And the what is over there

Kicking up the surface

Then giving back again

How far out can i reach

Without failing in

'cause i can't walk on water

Standing on my pier upon the ocean

Captured by the notions of possibility

Manufacturing reality

Alone as i seem i am among you

If i call out will you walk on water

Will you walk on water

I guess i'll never find the puff-the-magic-dragon side

Unless i ride my ship of dreams across the swirling tide

I stare into the chaos that's ahead of me

Frustrated with the path that i have chose to see

Like an arrow shot

My dreaming eye is caught

By the distant shores returning

To just an inch behind

'cause i can walk on water

Standing on my pier upon the ocean

Captured by the notions of possibility

Manufacturing reality

Alone as i seem i am among you

If i call out will you walk on water

Will you walk on water

Just a little ways out

Just a little ways in

If i was making a bridge this is where i would begin

But i wouldn't have stopped here

If i call out will you walk on water

Will you walk on water

Leaps of faith must suffer the weight of hopes

But then the undertow pulls strongest

To the ones that we have been

Will you walk on water
