0:07I've been reading books of old, the legends and the myths
0:12Achilles and his gold, Hercules and his gifts
0:17Spider-Man's control and Batman with his fists
0:22And clearly, I don't see myself upon that list
0:26But she said, "Where d'you wanna go? How much you wanna risk?
0:30I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
0:35Some superhero, some fairy tale bliss
0:40Just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss"
0:45I want something just like this
0:47Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
0:50Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
0:52Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
0:53Oh, I want something just like this

0:59Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
1:01Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
1:03Oh, I want something just like this
1:12I want something just like this
1:22I've been reading books of old, the legends and the myths
1:27The testaments they told, the moon and its eclipse
1:31And Superman unrolls a suit before he lifts
1:37But I'm not the kind of person that it fits
1:40She said, "Where d'you wanna go? How much you wanna risk?
1:45I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
1:50Some superhero, some fairy tale bliss
1:55Just something I can turn to, somebody I can miss"
1:59I want something just like this
2:08I want something just like this
2:17Oh, I want something just like this
2:20Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
2:22Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
2:25Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
2:27Oh, I want something just like this
2:30Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
2:32Doo-doo-doo, doo, doo
2:34Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
2:37Where d'you wanna go? How much you wanna risk?
2:41I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts
2:46Some superhero, some fairy tale bliss
2:51Just something I can turn to, somebody I can kiss
2:55I want something just like this
3:13Oh, I want something just like this
3:32Oh, I want something just like this
3:35♪
3:51Oh, I want something just like this
3:54♪
