Superman

I can’t stand to fly

I’m not that naive

I’m just out to find

The better part of me 


I’m more than a bird…I’m more than a plane

More than some pretty face beside a train

It’s not easy to be me 


Wish that I could cry

Fall upon my knees

Find a way to lie

About a home I’ll never see 


It may sound absurd…but don’t be naive

Even Heroes have the right to bleed

I may be disturbed…but won’t you concede

Even Heroes have the right to dream

It’s not easy to be me 


Up, up and away…away from me

Well it’s all right…You can all sleep sound tonight

I’m not crazy…or anything… 


I can’t stand to fly

I’m not that naive

Men weren’t meant to ride

With clouds between their knees 


I’m only a man in a silly red sheet

Digging for kryptonite on this one way street

Only a man in a funny red sheet

Looking for special things inside of me 

inside of me ...... inside of me ...(x2)


I’m only a man in a funny red sheet

I’m only a man looking for a dream

 


I’m only a man in a funny red sheet


It’s not easy ... wu.. hoo.. hoo..

It’s not easy to be me...

The Riddle (You and I)

There was a man back in '95

Whose heart ran out of summers 

But before he died, I asked him 

Wait, what's the sense in life

Come over me, Come over me 


He said, 


Son why you got to sing that tune 

Catch a Dylan song or some eclipse of the moon

Let an angel swing and make you swoon

Then you will see... You will see.


Then he said, 


Here's a riddle for yah

Find the Answer

There's a reason for the world

You and I...


Picked up my kid from school today 

Did you learn anything cause in the world today

You can't live in a castle far away

Now talk to me, come talk to me


He said, 


Dad I'm big but we're smaller than small

In the scheme of things, well we're nothing at all

Still every mother's child sings a lonely song

So play with me, come play with me


And Hey Dad

Here's a riddle for yah

Find the Answer

There's a reason for the world

You and I... 


I said, 


Son for all I've told yah

When you get right down to the

Reason for the world...

Who am I?


There are secrets that we still have left to find

There have been mysteries from the beginning of time

There are answers we're not wise enough to see 


He said... You looking for a clue I Love You free... 


The batter swings and the summer flies

As I look into my angel's eyes

A song plays on while the moon is high over me

Something comes over me 


I guess we're big and I guess we're small

If you think about it man you know we got it all

Cause we're all we got on this bouncing ball

And I love you free

I love you freely 


Here's a riddle for yah

Find the Answer

There's a reason for the world

You and I...

100 Years

I’m 15 for a moment

 Caught in between 10 and 20

 And I’m just dreaming

 Counting the ways to where you are


 I’m 22 for a moment

 And she feels better than ever

 And we’re on fire

 Making our way back from Mars


 15 there's still time for you

 Time to buy and time to lose

 15 there’s never a wish better than this

 When you've only got 100 years to live...


 I’m 33 for a moment

 I'm still “the man,” but you see I’m a “they”

 A kid on the way, babe

 A family on my mind


 I’m 45 for a moment

 The sea is high

 And I’m heading into a crisis

 Chasing the years of my life


 15 there's still time for you

 Time to buy and time to lose yourself

 Within a morning star

 15 I’m alright with you

 15 there’s never a wish better than this

 When you've only got a 100 years to live...


 Halftime goes by

 Suddenly you’re wise

 Another blink of an eye

 67 is gone

 The sun is getting high

 We’re moving on...


 I’m 99 for a moment

 I’m dying for just another moment

 And I’m just dreaming

 Counting the ways to where you are


 15 there's still time for you

 22 I feel her too

 33 you're on your way

 Every day's a new day...ooooo...


 15 there’s still time for you

 Time to buy and time to choose

 Hey 15 there’s never a wish better than this

 When you've only got 100 years to live...
