Superman Lyrics

Dan Bern Superman

Superman said, "I am weary"
Superman said, "Let's go home"

The trees were strung
With crosses and with ribbons
All the towns and churches
Had been bombed

Superman stood out in the rain
Leaning up against a crumbling wall
Still around were mostly cats and lepers
Birds no longer soared in the sky

Would you come away with me
Someday?
Would you come away with me
Some fine day?

Superman ducked into a phone booth
Made a call to Lois Lane
He said, "I will always love you "
But it might just be too late in the day
Would you come away with me?
