Lyrics
(for aka "linda")
just once i'd liked to think that
i could make some change
make somebody happy
or at least pretend she came
just once i'd like to think that
something different in this world
but i'm left here standing stupid
while someone else takes home the girl
hey i'm no superhero
have no special love nuance
i just want to have you
hold you close, just once
hey i'm no supervillain
have no special claim on lust
i just want to know you
inside and out, just once
just once i'd like to think that
when i picked up a name
that maybe she would be real this time
and not some silly f*** in' game
just once i'd like to think that
but i know that's stupid too
cause who she's really looking for
is just someone else to do
just once
hey i'm no superhero
have no special love nuance
i just want to have you
hold you close, just once
hey i'm no supervillain
have no special claim on lust
i just want to know you
inside and out, just once
just once i'd like to think that
when i call she'd be there
that the number she has left me with
won't be answered "Fred Astaire"
just once i'd like to think that
i would be the one
that gets to take her home tonight
to watch the leaf's game, with her sons
just once
hey i'm no superhero
have no special love nuance
i just want to have you
hold you close, just once
hey i'm no supervillain
have no special claim on lust
i just want to know you
inside and out, just once
