I never seen a mircle before
I thought you were sent from heaven's door
But you knew all along you wouldn't stay
You left me here to drown in this heartache

[Chorus]
I feel in the water 
That you walked on
Up to my heart in misery
I can't believe you're gone
I thought you could do no wrong
Til I fell in the water
That you walked on.

I just had to get close enough to touch
Once I did I couldn't get enough
But you're no where near what you appear to be
Now I see the truth but I'm in to deep
Til

[Chorus: x 2]
