Matt Haughey - Superman Lyrics

He's trying to find a place to keep him warm
It's always harder in the rain
He finds an overhang he's seen before
For now a quiet place to stay
People stare at him as they go by
He wishes they could understand
Beneath the tattered clothes and tired eyes
There lies a very hopeful man
He's lost a friend he has to live with that
He's made mistakes he dreams he could take back
He said he thought he'd be Superman
Fly up higher than humans can
That he'd be a bird, be a plane
But he's stuck down here on the earth
He said he thought it'd be easier
He'd save the world from a meteor
But he hears the laughs and the whispers
And can't quite hide how it hurts
Because he thought he'd be Superman
He thought he'd be Superman
When he lays his head to rest at night
He flies the skies like Superman
But in the light he feels the Kryptonite
And he finds a careful place to land
He had a girl he had to let her go
He said he loves her still but she doesn't know
No no
He said he thought he'd be Superman
Fly up higher than humans can
That he'd be a bird, be a plane
But he's stuck down here on the earth
He said he thought it'd be easier
He'd save the world from a meteor
But he hears the laughs and the whispers
And can't quite hide how it hurts
Because he thought he'd be Superman
He thought he'd be Superman
He said he thought he'd be Superman
Fly up higher than humans can
That he'd be a bird, be a plane
But he's stuck down here on the earth
He said he thought it'd be easier
He'd save the world from a meteor
But he hears the laughs and the whispers
And can't quite hide how it hurts
Because he thought he'd be Superman
