Superman

(album: Matters Of The Heart - 2019)

Power in your eyes
Strong on the outside
Face like you made to be paid for your time
Smooth just like a gangster
Sharper than a pencil
Swept me off of my feet, straight up to the sky

And I fell for your disguise
Caught up in the flashing light
Oh, but I shoulda known
Too good to be true
Love ain't always what it seems

I thought he was a superman, but he can't fly
And he told me lies, why am I surprised?
Oh, no superman, he the man of steel
'Cause he can't feel, no, nothin's real
Superman, who's gonna save your soul
When you ain't so super anymore?

Looks, they gon' fade
Parties overrated
Boy, you already look like you so jaded
Too much of the bottle
Getting you in trouble
What happened to a man like you thought you'd be brave?

But you're living for the nights
Caught up in the flashing lights
Oh, but I shoulda known
Too good to be true
Love ain't always what it seems

I thought he was a superman, but he can't fly
And he told me lies, why am I surprised?
Oh, no superman, he the man of steel
'Cause he can't feel, no, nothin's real
Superman, who's gonna save your soul
When you ain't so super anymore?

But I shoulda known
I shoulda, I shoulda, I shoulda known
Oh, but I shoulda known
Too good to be true
Love ain't always what it seems

I thought he was a superman, but he can't fly
And he told me lies, why am I surprised?
Oh, no superman, he the man of steel
'Cause he can't feel, no, nothin's real
I thought he was a superman, but he can't fly
And he told me lies, why am I surprised?
Oh, no superman, he the man of steel
'Cause he can't feel, no, nothin's real
Superman, who's gonna save your soul
When you ain't so super anymore?
