Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal jou oppas in die donker
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou superman

Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal die wereld vir jou aanvat
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou hero wees?
In al die stories wat jy lees?
En elke aand as jy gaan slaap
Is ek die een wat oor jou waak

Al slaan die donder weer
Wereld winde teen jou neer
Sal die held hier binne my
Net soos n reus vir jou baklei

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal jou oppas in die donker
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman

Spiderman wees?
Ek sal die wereld vir jou aanvat
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Ek sal jou trane vang
Voor dit rol oor jou wang
Want net een glimlag vir nou
Is al wat ek nodig het van jou

Ek sal dit weer en weer bewys
Al word ons oud
Al word ons grys
Want ek weet dit is net jy
Dis jy wat n Hero raak van my

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal jou oppas in die donker
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal die wereld vir jou aanvat
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Eks n man
Met n hart van stal
Wat jou nie sal laat gaan
En vanaand
Is die aand wat ek jou vra

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal jou oppas in die donker
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal die wereld vir jou aanvat
en vir jou 'n hero wees

Kan ek jou superman
Batman
Ironman
Spiderman wees?
Ek sal jou oppas in die donker
en vir jou n hero wees
Ek sal die wereld vir jou aanvat
en vir jou 'n hero wees
