Tall dark and super manly
Puts papers in his briefcase and drives away
To save the world or go to work
It's the same thing to me
He's got his mother's eyes, his father's ambition
I wonder if he knows how much that I miss him
Hang on every word you say
And you smile and say how are you?
And I'll say just fine.
I always forget to tell you I love you.
I'll love you forever

I watched Superman fly away
You got a busy day today
Go save the world
I'll be around
I watched superman fly away
Come back I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down

Tall, dark and beautiful, he's complicated, he's irrational
But I hope someday he'll take me away and save the day, yeah
Something in his deep brown eyes has me saying,
He's not all bad like his reputation
And I can't hear one single word they say.
And you'll leave, got places to be and I'll be OK
I always forget to tell you I love you
I loved you from the very first day

I watched Superman fly away
You got a busy day today
Go save the world, I'll be around
I watched Superman fly away
Come back, I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down

And I watch you fly around the world
And I hope you don't save some other girl
Don't forget, don't forget about me
I'm far away but I never let you go
I'm lovestruck and looking out the window
Don't forget, don't forget where I'll be
Right here wishing the flowers were from you
Wishing the card was from you
Wishing the call was from you
'Cause I've loved you from the very first day

I watched Superman fly away
You got a busy day today
Go save the world, I'll be around
For ever and ever
I watched Superman fly away
I swear I'll be with you someday
I'll be right here on the ground
When you come back down

Come back down
