I wanted to get on stage and sing for you
I wanted to start a family
I wanted to buy a house in Malibu, mm-hmm
But there's only one of me

And I can't do it all
Call me "Superwoman" but I know I'm not that strong
Mm-hmm-hmm

Because I cry more than a little
And if I'm superwoman
I'm flying in the rain (Flying in the rain)
And I wonder, will it ever get old
Being a superwoman?
Smiling through the pain (Smiling through the pain)

Even heroes cry
So, why can't I?
Why can't I?

I don't really have any archenemies
My only villain is myself
I'm not quite exactly who I wanna be, mm-hmm
I can't be anybody else

And I can't do it all
So, call me "Superwoman" but I know I'm not that strong
No-oh-oh

Because I cry more than a little
And if I'm superwoman
Flying in the rain (Flying in the rain)
And I wonder, will it ever get old
Being a superwoman?
Smiling through the pain (Smiling through the pain)

Even heroes cry
So, why can't I?
Why can't I?
Even heroes cry
So, why can't I?
Why can't I?
