Superman

I know he's out there,
Somewhere looking for me.
I'm waiting so patiently,
But this wait is hard to bare. 

I'm reachin' out for someone,
Does anyone hear my cries?
Reach me before sunrise,
Make me come undone.

Rescue me from this terror.
Throw me out a line.
I can't make another error.
With you, everything will be fine.

Please rescue me?
Where is my Superman?
I need my Superman!
I'm drowning in this sea!

I'm waiting ever so calmly.
I thought I saw you near,
But it was just a dream I fear.
I'm waiting ever so calmly...
