Lyrics Mary Chapin Carpenter – Superman
Text:
Well the night is ending everywhere
Dim the lights, put up the chairs
Walk me home, take my hand
Maybe you can be my Superman
Tonight I wore my party dress
For no one else but me I guess
That’s alright, you understand
Tonight you’ll be my superman
No more confessions now or later
Hold me ’cause you can
Tonight love is not a traitor
But a friend
No you don’t have to save the world
With x-ray eyes and cape unfurled
Simply whisper in my ear again
That you’re gonna be my superman
No more confessions now or later
Hold me ’cause you can
Tonight love is not a traitor
But a friend
Oh, the night is ending everywhere
Streets rolled up, sidewalks bare
But we don’t have to give a damn
‘Cause I’m trusting in your Superman
