Lyrics

Start

Intro

Watching from afar as heroes rise and fall

Looking for a savior who could save us all

Then the news came in on that fateful day

When our mighty hero was taken away

Bridge

The world stood still, tears in our eyes

No one prepared for such a surprise

Verse 1

Lights were flashing on the television screen

My heart was broken at the age of seventeen

They told the story of a hero's final flight

The world was mourning as he vanished from our sight[Start]

Verse 1

Lights were flashing on the television screen

My heart was broken at the age of seventeen

They told the story of a hero's final flight

The world was mourning as he vanished from our sight

Pre-Chorus

And I keep searching through the night

For someone who could make things right

Chorus

Hero of my dreams has fallen from the sky

What once was strong is gone, no need to wonder why

All the cape and glory, now just a memory

Superman is gone, never coming back to me

Post-Chorus

Gone away, gone away

Never to return, never to return

Verse 2

Yesterday I saw him flying through the clouds

Now he's nowhere to be found among the crowds

Papers say he's fallen, headlines scream the news

Left me standing lonely in my dancing shoes[Chorus]

Hero of my dreams has fallen from the sky

What once was strong is gone, no need to wonder why

All the cape and glory, now just a memory

Superman is gone, never coming back to me

Post-Chorus

Gone away, gone away

Never to return, never to return

Verse 2

Yesterday I saw him flying through the clouds

Now he's nowhere to be found among the crowds

Papers say he's fallen, headlines scream the news

Left me standing lonely in my dancing shoes

Pre-Chorus

And I keep waiting for a sign

That heroes last the test of time

Chorus

Hero of my dreams has fallen from the sky

What once was strong is gone, no need to wonder why

All the cape and glory, now just a memory

Superman is gone, never coming back to me

Post-Chorus

Gone away, gone away

Never to return, never to return[Bridge]

Time has passed but still I feel the pain

Looking for a hero once again in vain

All the powers in the world couldn't save

The man of steel from finding his grave

Final Chorus

Hero of my dreams has fallen from the sky

What once was strong is gone, no need to wonder why

All the cape and glory, now just a memory

Superman is gone, never coming back to me

Outro

Dancing queen without her king of flight

Shining star extinguished in the night

Mamma mia, how the mighty fall

Superman is gone forever from us all

End
