	Credits: Mike (for the title)
	Story Behind the Song Typical motivation... girl meets boy, girl wants boy, girl can't have boy, so girl writes song about boy ;-) The lyrics took some developing, and the guitar additional developing. It took me about a month to get this song the way I wanted it. Lyrics I drove out to the ocean So much greater than myself To set my mind in motion And let thoughts replay themselves I can almost feel the memory Of my fingers in your windblown hair Your warm embrace, and your gentle stare I wrote your name on open sand And watched the waves take it back again I wish we really knew one another I wish that I could walk on water But I can’t, so I’ll stand here On dry land I smell the thunder in the air Mixed with sea salt and heartache Run my hand along this worn-in bench With paint that chips and flakes The cypress trees, heavy with rain Shower mist my way What’s one, one more day I wish we really knew one another I wish that I could walk on water But I can’t, so I’ll stand here On dry land I thought that I knew better Thought that I could walk on water I’ve cried too much for you And now I’m through And so I sit and watch the sea And wait for the day Someone will sing for me I wish that I could walk on water
