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?
