I walk these streets and wash away my tracks
Feel I could fall, right through these paving cracks, oh
The waters rise, but I won't drown, just hold my head above the water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters
I guess it's time for me to face the facts
Though I could fall right through these paving cracks, oh
I walk the line, no turning back
So, I just keep on treadin' water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters (daughters)
Keep on treadin' water

For all your sons, your sons and daughters (daughters)
I walk these streets and wash away my tracks
Feel I could fall, right through these paving cracks, oh
The waters rise, but I won't drown, just hold my head above the water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters
I guess it's time for me to face the facts
Though I could fall right through these paving cracks, oh
I walk the line, no turning back

So, I just keep on treadin' water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters
Oh-oh, I'm not evaporatin'
Oh-oh, I will not be forsaken
No, no, oh

I will be weightless and just walk out on the water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters
Back to the streets
Goin' back to the streets
Goin' back to the streets

I walk these streets and wash away my tracks
Feel I could fall, right through these paving cracks, oh
The waters rise, but I won't drown, just hold my head above the water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters
I guess it's time for me to face the facts
Though I could fall right through these paving cracks, oh
I walk the line, no turning back
So, I just keep on treadin' water

For all your sons, your sons and daughters
Keep on treadin' water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters (daughters)
Keep on treadin' water
For all your sons, your sons and daughters (daughters)
Goin' back to the streets
(True love is the fee)
