Dan Bern — Superman lyrics

Lyrics

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?
