As you stand at the edge of existence
and the world has forgotten your name
After life after life you remember
the secret
He's as fast as a speeding bullet
Change the water into wine
And the last time he came
They cursed his name
With a kryptonite cross
they cut him down
[Chorus]
Superman
Are we ever going to see you again
If we do will you teach us how to fly above the sky?
Some say at the end of the tunnel
There's a light that will show us the way
It's a light that belongs to the people of every nation, color or creed
I can't speak for all of the sinners
I don't know any saints I could ask
It's been 2000 years since we've seen you
We need you
Please come back
[Chorus]
All of the pain in your life
How can we ever repay?
And the answer, you said
is in the life that you led, Superman
[Chorus]
and the world has forgotten your name
After life after life you remember
the secret
He's as fast as a speeding bullet
Change the water into wine
And the last time he came
They cursed his name
With a kryptonite cross
they cut him down
[Chorus]
Superman
Are we ever going to see you again
If we do will you teach us how to fly above the sky?
Some say at the end of the tunnel
There's a light that will show us the way
It's a light that belongs to the people of every nation, color or creed
I can't speak for all of the sinners
I don't know any saints I could ask
It's been 2000 years since we've seen you
We need you
Please come back
[Chorus]
All of the pain in your life
How can we ever repay?
And the answer, you said
is in the life that you led, Superman
[Chorus]
