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.

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.

Yeah they're givin' you a bad reputation just because you've never
