Love song

SUPERMAN- Joe Brooks

This song talks about the singer feelings, he feels in love but he can't tell her because he is afraid for her answer. When she walks near him it makes him feel so small. He tells us that she is perfect for him, he says that it's like she is from some other world. He says that if he were a superman he'd fly her to the stars but he isn't a superman so he hopes her to like him as he is. This love is romantic and a bit tragic because he loves her but he can't tell, he is shy. But it's romantic because he describes the girl like the best person on the world and he says that for her he can have everything.
