Isn't there a superman to sweep me off my feet?

Up where the mountains meet the heavens above

Out where the lightning splits the sea

I could swear that there's someone, somewhere

Watching me
F
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
G
And the storm and the raging flood
C G (let ring)
Oh his approach is like a fire in my blood

I'll meet a hero

And then we'll dance till morning light

Dreaming he'll leave me,
F G
He'll die tonight's the night
