She's watching the taxi driver he pulls away She's been locked up inside her apartment a hundred days She says Yeah he's still coming just a little bit late He got stuck at the laundromat washing his cape She's just watching the clouds roll by and they spell her name like Lois Lane And she smiles oh the way she smiles She's talking to angels counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She's dancing with strangers falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms In his arms Waiting for Superman She's out on the corner trying to catch a glimpse Nothing's making sense She's been chasing an answer A sign lost in the abyss this Metropolis She says Yeah he's still coming just a little bit late He got stuck at the Five and Dime saving the day She says If life was a movie then it wouldn't end like this Left without a kiss Still she smiles the way she smiles yeah She's talking to angels she's counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She's dancing with strangers she's falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms In his arms She's waiting for Superman To lift her up and take her anywhere Show her love and climbing through the air Save her now before it's too late tonight Oh like a speeding light And she smiles She's talking to angels she's counting the stars Making a wish on a passing car She's dancing with strangers she's falling apart Waiting for Superman to pick her up In his arms In his arms She's waiting for Superman To lift her up and take her anywhere Show her love and climbing through the air Save her now before it's too late tonight She's waiting for Superman
