Cape Over Metropolis

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Boots on the ledge Wind in his face He sees the panic Across the place A phone in the rubble A cry in the hall One clean motion And he’s there for all [Pre-Chorus] Up, up, through the smoke Straight through the fear He’s the name they call When hope gets near [Chorus] Superman, Superman Lift us up again Superman, Superman Catch us where we bend When the ground gives way And the dark won’t end Superman, Superman Be the light again [Verse 2] Red by the window Blue in the dawn A hand on the shoulder Keeps the brave going on He takes the hit Then steps through the pain No crown, no throne Just a streak in the rain [Pre-Chorus] Up, up, through the smoke Straight through the fear He’s the name they call When hope gets near [Chorus] Superman, Superman Lift us up again Superman, Superman Catch us where we bend When the ground gives way And the dark won’t end Superman, Superman Be the light again [Bridge] If the sky falls low He goes higher If the whole world shakes He won’t tire One call, one turn One shot, one chance He stands in the fire And makes us stand [Final Chorus] Superman, Superman Lift us up again Superman, Superman Catch us where we bend When the ground gives way And the dark won’t end Superman, Superman Be the light again Superman, Superman We can breathe again
