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   
 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   
 Superman 
 Are we ever going to see you again 
 If we do will you teach us how to fly above the sky?   
 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   
 Superman 
 Are we ever going to see you again 
 If we do will you teach us how to fly above the sky?
