Superman

Superman said, "I am weary"

Superman said, "Let's go home"

The trees were strung

With crosses and with ribbons

All the towns and churches

Had been bombed

Superman stood out in the rain

Leaning up against a crumbling wall

Still around were mostly cats and lepers

Birds no longer soared in the sky

Would you come away with me

Someday?

Would you come away with me

Some fine day?

Superman ducked into a phone booth

Made a call to Lois Lane

He said, "I will always love you "

But it might just be too late in the day

Would you come away with me?
