The Day I Met Superman
NOTES:
This one looked good on paper. The progression is fun. Putting it together is a different story. I’m not happy with the bridge… it almost feels like it belongs in another song. The song is tricky to sing.
Oh well, It was a lot of fun to do, regardless. (=
LYRICS:
I loved the water
before I knew to swim
I hated running
before I ever took gym
I didn’t need a map
to find my feet to stand
I knew how to rock
before I joined a band
The day I met Superman
I didn’t need to know his name
The big red S said it all
and my life is not the same…
The day I met Superman
was the greatest day of all
He carried me through the air
and He didn’t let me fall
I was wandered in the woods
when the ground sucked me down
lost for forty days
and I struggled not to drown
He swooped down from the sky
and freed me with a smile
stood me to my feet
after flying for a mile
That’s what makes Him great
It’s not just the strength or speed
He always finds you
when you’re the one in need
