Song lyrics

Send "Superman (It's Not Easy)" ringtones to your cell

I can't stand to fly 
I'm not that naive 
I'm just out to find 
The better part of me 

I'm more than a bird 
I'm more than a plane 
I'm more than some pretty face beside a train 
And it's not easy to be me 

Wish that I could cry 
Fall upon my knees 
Find a way to lie 
'Bout a home I'll never see 

It might sound absurd 
But don't be naive 
Even heroes have the right to bleed 
I may be disturbed 
But won't you conceive 
Even heroes have the right to dream 
And it's not easy to be me 

Up, up, and away, away from me 
But it's alright 
You can all sleep sound tonight 
I'm not crazy or anything 

I can't stand to fly 
I'm not that naive 
Men weren't meant to ride 
With clouds between their knees 

I'm only a man in a silly red sheet 
Digging for kryptonite on this one way street 
Only a man in a funny red sheet 
Looking for special things inside of me 
Inside of me 
Inside of me 
Yeah, inside of me 
Inside of me 

I'm only a man in a funny red sheet 
I'm only a man looking for a dream 
I'm only a man in a funny red sheet 
And it's not easy 
Oooo oooo oooo 

It's not easy 
To be 
Me

29 posts	me too, agrees with you. everytime i listen to this song i really feel the words. though sometimes i get to the edge of getting tired listening to it... whenever i hear it many times already [any song loses its "goodness" whenever heard too many times already, i guess---not only this one] nevertheless, its nice.

36 posts	rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal This song is so moving, it makes you think about the superhero-like motives inside of all of us, and how we strive for something spectacular but realise the opposite only when we have it. It's human nature at it's most weakest point.
