I met a magic man
who had a daughter
she learned her lessons well
but still i taught her
she followed willingly
as lambs to slaughter
we shared forbidden fruit
and things i brought her
You may say i'm a miracle mannequin
here i come with my mystical plan again
i know you think i can
i'm just a man
I don't walk on water
(oh no)
i don't walk on water
(oh no)
I followed willingly
her sweet temptation
she had me hypnotized
but still i'm waiting
my drowned and buried dreams? (my dromedary dreams?)
as wet as oceans
we set the bearing seas? (with sand dunes bearing seeds?)
she set emotion? (she set in motion?)
You may say i'm a cynical charlatan
there i go with my whimsical ways again
although you think i can
i'm just a man
That i don't walk on water
(oh no)
i don't walk on water
(oh no)
i don't walk on water
(oh no)
i don't walk on water
(oh no)
(here's two options for the bridge. not at all sure which one's right, his voice is all messed up) i-
the light is guiding eyes
as i look in on you
and the light is getting shorter
i suppose i'm you
Ii-
kaleidoscopial eyes
as you look in the mirror
and the long is getting shorter
as the far is now nearer
Are you just a mirror
standing in front of me?
in my mind? (am i blind?)
can my eyes really see?
