lyrics
When I was small I thought the world was so big
That somewhere Superman's in flight
An evil genius fights a super spy
At his hidden fortress site
It seemed so clear that by next year
We'd be breathing Martian air
Everything would happen everywhere
Years went by and the world shrank down
Now it's just as big as my life
It holds a job and weekends
It's dark and full of strife
Sometimes I check and crane my neck
But all I see is sky
Never superheroes flying by
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
When you're in your cape and cowl it's very clear to see
A superhero's saving our city
Why should you be satisfied
A man walked on the moon?
If you had your way we'd all be
Headed back there soon
A secret base: the kind of place
Where you could play outside
A rocket ship to be your awesome ride
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
Best of all I gaze into your eyes and there I see
A superhero staring back at me
It's too late for me now
My choices have been made
And one of them turned out a righteous trade
I only hope that one day
It will come to you
That some day you're a superhero too
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
Best of all I gaze into your eyes and there I see
A superhero staring back at me
That somewhere Superman's in flight
An evil genius fights a super spy
At his hidden fortress site
It seemed so clear that by next year
We'd be breathing Martian air
Everything would happen everywhere
Years went by and the world shrank down
Now it's just as big as my life
It holds a job and weekends
It's dark and full of strife
Sometimes I check and crane my neck
But all I see is sky
Never superheroes flying by
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
When you're in your cape and cowl it's very clear to see
A superhero's saving our city
Why should you be satisfied
A man walked on the moon?
If you had your way we'd all be
Headed back there soon
A secret base: the kind of place
Where you could play outside
A rocket ship to be your awesome ride
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
Best of all I gaze into your eyes and there I see
A superhero staring back at me
It's too late for me now
My choices have been made
And one of them turned out a righteous trade
I only hope that one day
It will come to you
That some day you're a superhero too
I know that you're still out there
In a world that's wild and strange
You're swimming in the infinite
And everything can change
Best of all I gaze into your eyes and there I see
A superhero staring back at me
