I met Superman with you,
Charlie Brown & Jesus Too
On those nights I couldn't sleep,
You were always there with me
When I was young and faint of heart
You'd tell me stories in the dark
When I felt i couldn't fly
You and Peter took me on a ride
You said "Son Don't be afraid to die"
"We had an awfully great adventure"
Now so much of who we are in those
Stories in the dark
What we learned when we were young,
Sets the table for our lives
Bread we break, it fills our hearts,
It feeds our loss
And even though, you're not here anymore
I hear your voice
Cats in the cradle and the silver spoon
Used to make me cry, guess i still do
I didn't want that for me and you
You know we'll be together soon
'Cause when I wonder where you are
I hear those stories in the dark
I know someday I'll tell my own
And then someday you've moved on
I'll tell him "Son don't be afraid to die"
"We had an awfully great adventure"
Now i know right where you are
You're in my stories in the dark
What we learned when we were young
Sets the table for our lives
Bread we break, it fills our hearts,
It feeds our loss
And even though, you're not here anymore
I hear your voice
I see you there
In the corner of my mind
I see you there
But you stay a step behind
And even though
You're not hear anymore
I hear your voice
I met Superman with you,
Charlie brown & Jesus, too
Now i know right where you are
In my stories in the dark
