You slow down my flight
You are my kryptonite
You take away all my powers
But I don't need them every hour
I only want to be with you
You help me see what I can do

I don't need to be Superman
I just need to hold your hand
I may be Kal-El
But even I can tell
My superstrength won't make a dent
I only need to be Clark Kent.

You slow down my flight
You are my kryptonite
You take away all my powers
But I don't need them every hour
I only want to be with you
You help me see what I can do

My Fortress of Solitude
Does not share your magnitude
You are my Lois Lane
I could never cause you pain
I don't need my superspeed
When I'm on the path you lead

You slow down my flight
You are my kryptonite
You take away all my powers
But I don't need them every hour
I only want to be with you
You help me see what I can do

You see through every decision
It's like you're the one with x-ray vision
I might be just a goof
I don't need to be bulletproof
Because I'll always have you
To help see me through.

You slow down my flight
You are my kryptonite
You take away all my powers
But I don't need them every hour
I only want to be with you
You help me see what I can do.
