Owl City - Not all heroes wear Capes

He doesn't fight crime or wear a cape He doesn't read minds or levitate But every time my world needs saving He's my Superman Some folks don't believe in heroes 'cause They haven't met my dad He loves his workshop and rock 'n' roll He's got a hot rod and a heart of gold And you could say he's a man of few words But he talks a lot within And even though I'm a little taller I still look up to him He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that My dad's a hero to me Rust-ridden fenders and doors full of dings Somehow he can fix about anything I didn't think he knew how to cry 'Til our dog died that year He doesn't always say I love you But I can hear him loud and clear He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that My dad's a hero to me He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that My dad's a hero to me (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) My dad's a hero to me (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) My dad's a hero to me

I fell in love with a ghost Oh, under the moonlight You took my hand and held me close For once I was alright I cried and the tears fell from my eyes Like a waterfall And I swear I could feel you in my arms But there was no one there at all You were my clarity, I swear Alone in a daydream Yeah there was magic in the air And you were right here beside me Held down like an angel with no wings I wanna fly again I just can't get you off my mind And now I'm gonna be up all night It's tearing me up inside I just can't get you off my mind I tossed and turned in the end With no one to talk to I searched again and again But I never found you I cried and the tears fell from my eyes Like a waterfall And I swear I could feel you in my arms But there was no one there at all You were my clarity, I swear Alone in a daydream Yeah there was magic in the air And you were right here beside me Held down like an angel with no wings I wanna fly again I just can't get you off my mind And now I'm gonna be up all night I'm gonna be up all night I'm gonna be up all night I don't wanna say goodbye Its tearing me up inside I just can't get you off my mind And now I'm gonna be up all night I'm gonna be up all night I'm gonna be up all night I don't wanna say goodbye It's tearing me up inside I just can't get you off my mind You were my clarity, I swear Alone in a daydream Yeah there was magic in the air And you were right here beside me Held down like an angel with no wings I wanna fly again I just can't get you off my mind And now I'm gonna be up all night A whisper on the air Made my heart rate fall When I heard you call And I swear, I could hear your voice in my ear But there was no one there at all
