Oh, Eddie Money, you wonderful, wonderful man. This was a “Pick Hit Of The Week”, and rightly so. The first time I heard this song, I fell in love, and I fell in love hard. This was another of those tunes that so enchanted me that I couldn’t help but record it multiple times. Was it that opening chord with your wonderfully strained voice singing over top of it? Was it that catchy “na na na na na na na na na” etc. etc. chorus? Maybe it was secretly that I was getting a giddy little thrill that this one was more than a tad sacrilegious, what with all the mentioning of walking on water and such? Who knows, Eddie Money. All I know is that this was the first Eddie Money song I’d ever heard, and I’ve been an Eddie Money fan ever since.
“Walk On Water”
Well, if I could walk on water
And if I could find some way to prove
If I could walk on water, would you
Believe in me
My love is so true
(Na na na naa na, na na na na)
(Na na na naa na, na na na na)
(Na na na naa na, na na na, na na na naa na naa)
Well, I’m no angel, now
I’ll admit
I made a few bad moves I
I should regret
I hurt you once
Or so you said
Just one more chance is
All you get
Didn’t mean ta do you wrong again
Worse things have been done by
Better men
Baby, baby, don’t, don’t treat me this way
How long have I got ta pay now
I’m still payin’
Well, if I could walk on water
And if I could find some way ta prove
If I could walk on water, would you
Believe in me
My love is true
Na na na na na na na na
Oh
All year long
I told ya lines
Ta err is human
Forgive is divine
Don’t be a fool
Don’t settle the score
‘Cause I can’t take it no more
I can’t take it
Well, if I could walk on water
And if I could find some way ta prove
If I could walk on water, would you
Believe in me
My love is true
Well, if I could walk on water (if I could)
Is that what I’m gonna have ta do?
If I could walk on water, would you
Believe in me
My love is so true
(Na na na naa na, na na na na)
(Na na na naa na, na na na na)
(Na na na naa na, na na na, na na na naa na naa)
Do I have to walk
Walk
Walk on water for you
Hey baby, baby, there’s a little
Time, let’s spend it together
We’ll get over what we left behind, there’s a future together
Yeah, well, let’s stay together
Ooo, yeah!
I keep walking, walking, walking
For you
For you
Well, if I could walk on water
And if I could find some way ta prove
If I could walk on water, would you
Believe in me
My love is true
If I had ta walk (na na na naa na, na na na na)
If I had ta walk, walk, walk (na na na naa na, na na na na)
Do I have ta walk on water (na na na naa na, na na na, na na na naa na naa)
Walk on water for you
Do I have ta walk on water (na na na naa na, na na na na)
Do I have to find some way ta prove (na na na naa na, na na na na)
Do I have to walk on water (na na na naa na, na na na, na na na naa na naa)
Walk on water for you
Do I have to walk on water (na na na naa na, na na na na)
