Dio - Walk On Water Lyrics






He's just an ordinary man
Never gonna live forever
So he takes it where he can

Too many nights without a day
For the sake of being clever
He almost lost his way
He always thought that he could fly
Till he was shot down from the sky
You can't walk on water - don't try
You can't walk on water - my my my

They say there's ice inside his veins
He's the man of a thousand faces
Silver spoons and golden chains
He thought his heart was made of steel
But it never started pounding
Till they strapped him to the wheel

He always thought that he could fly
Till he was shot down from the sky
No matter what you try
You can't walk on water - my my
Can't walk on water - don't let me try

Somebody said we'll make him strong
He can give us all the answers
Tell us right and show us wrong

If you believe it, it's no lie
And there is an end to summer
'Cause the winter makes it die

We never looked above his head
And so he missed the things that they said, yeah
He always thought that he could fly
Until they shot him from the sky

No matter how you try
You can't walk on water
Can't burn the sun
You can't walk on water
Not anyone

You can't, you can't, you can't
You can't, you can't, walk on water

    Best Dio song....and that fucking SOLO rips..Rowan told me he recorded 3 parts separated. Those arpeggios make Yngwie sound like Cobain.

    S.... A....

    Ese solo siempre me llamó mucho la atención, no era normal ni común, demasiado excelente, la pasión y la agresividad en este solo es increeíble, ligados, tapping, tiene todo. En general el trabajo de Rowan en todo el album es excelso, pensar que solamente tenia 18 años cuándo tocó eso, después su carrera me parece estuvo muy apagada. Has platicado con él?

    S.... A....

    Garbage

    S.... A....

    I remember thinking I was really good at 19 years old - shredding EVH and YJM - and then I got my copy of Guitarist magazine which featured Rowan's personal transcription of this solo. That section - 1m 48 to 1m 50 - was string skipped! After listening to the solo - and then trying to play it - let's just say I was extremely humbled!!!!!

  15. C.... D....

    This is my favorite Dio album and I don't care what people have to say runner up is Last In Line then Holy Diver IMO!!!

    C.... D....

    MIne too bro, although Ronnie told me he hate it, but - in a gentleman's way - he said "if you like it son, I love it. Your delight is my goal" He made me cry.

    C.... D....

    That is AMAZING brother killer you got to meet Dio I unfortunately am in my mid 20s never got to see Dio or Heaven Or Hell I also was suppose to see Motörhead months before Lemmy passed away they canceled all the Texas dates so it really bites me that I could never see Dio or Motörhead and at my age opportunities were there as adolescent yrs. I am seeing Blue Oyster Cult tomorrow and am excited about that!! Cheers brother!!!

  16. k.... ....

    he's got the midnight madness, he'll scratch your soul, oh, he's the King of Rock N Roll.

  17. A.... W....

  18. S.... R....

  19. S.... ....

    HAIL DIO!!! \,,,/

  20. D.... ....

    Holy shit Jens Johansson of Stratovarius was in Dio!!!

    D.... ....

    Didn't know either dude ! Well it's good to learn lol

    D.... ....

    He was in Rainbow too

    D.... ....

    At this time (1990) Dio's career, at least in America could only be described as "down and out" - the previous "Dream Evil" was not a big seller and failed to obtain GOLD in terms of sales so he fired the whole band and hired a new band. Jens was part of that. It was an attempt to re-generate interest in Dio. Jens had been Yngwie Malmsteen's keyboard player before his brief time in Dio. He and the other guys were only around for this one album and tour. It sold even worse than "Dream Evil" and Tony Iommi's solo albums under the "Black Sabbath" name weren't selling either so in 1991 they joined forces for a reunion that resulted in "Dehumanizer"

  21. V.... ....

    Za warudo

  22. F.... M....

    .... Dio managed to assemble some great musicians for this album . Why is it so good ...yet so underrated ????

    F.... M....

    He did! Rowan Robertson was only a teen, but shredded like he was a veteran! I don't think so much underrated, as less mainstream of a name. There a A LOT of people who worship him as a metal god! Between Rainbow, Heaven And Hell (my favorite Sabbath album-sounded a lot more evil than Ozzy era) and his own stuff, he has proven himself over and over! Loved it when he got all the metal musicians together for Hear 'N Aid-Stars! Friggin' awesome song and a lot of big names in metal, all for a good cause! Check it out!

  23. I.... B....

    DIO YOU WALKED ON WATER, YOU ARE THE GREAT DIO. R.I.P. RONALD JAMES PADAVONA DIO, YOU WHERE AND WHERE EVER YOU ARE YOUR THE MAN, KEEP ON ROCKIN AND WE WILL DO OUR PART AND KEEP ROCKIN TO.

  24. R.... K....

  27. S.... R....
