Superman

LETRA

Superman

I have tried
To make the best of everything
But I still cry
When I think about what might have been
No one can say
Who you might be today
You could've been Superman
It could've been any of us
Could've been the second coming
And now we'll never know
You could've been Superman

Fancy lies
To do what was best for everyone
I'd walk on the sky
If I could undo what we've done
You make me scared
I take you everywhere
You could've been Superman
You could've been the start of something
You could've been my hero
Now we will never know
You could've been Superman

I see you in the dark
Though I try not to
You're spitting in the world
And then you're old
So cry your eyes a tear into my pocket
And I'll keep it
Carry it like gold
Could've been Superman
Could've been somebody's mother
Could've been the one exception
Oh, that you could've been
Could've been Superman

(I could've let you down)
Could've been Superman
(I could've screwed you up)
Could've been my guy
(No one can touch you now)
I could've loved you
Could've been Superman
