somewhere a man is waiting for his call
somewhere a baby is waiting to be born
somewhere there's a woman
got her back against the wall
somewhere time keeps slippin'
I can watch it fall

Chorus:

but it won't be easy
so you better close the door
I hear you talkin'
now what are you askin' for
it won't be pretty
soon you'll be walkin' on the water
walkin' on the water

somewhere a politician is hiding in a darkened room
somewhere a physician tries to masquerade with the hands of doom
somewhere a native American tries takin' back his piece of land
somewhere the watcher in the sky shakes his head and raises his hands

it won't be easy
so you better close the door
I hear you talkin'
now what are you askin' for
it won't be pretty
now what you gonna say
soon you'll be walkin' on the water anyway

it won't be easy
soon you'll be walkin' on the water
walkin' on the water

somewhere a lover is waitin' to be loved
somewhere a bad man is waitin' to be shoved
somewhere a stranger comes walkin' from the past
somewhere a movie is waitin' to be cast
