Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Superman can fly high, way up in the sky
'Cause we believe he can
So what we choose to believe can always work out fine
It's all in the mind
So think of a place and imagine a time
Imagine a time, imagine a time, and let's go be lovers
Believing me, ooh we baby
Is believing right, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Verse 2]
And I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
Wanna love, wanna love, wanna love, wanna love
Wanna love, wanna love, (Girl) wanna love
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
[Verse 3]
Ooh, so near
And forever keep you here
Forget all about whatever we fear, whatever we fear (Whatever we fear)
And let's just be lovers
Loving and loving, oh love is the way
To make me stay, make me stay
[Verse 4]
Yeah, I know the way to persuade me over to your side
And I am sure you can
So if you get me to believe
It all will work out fine
'Cause you'll blow my mind
[Verse 5]
So let's pick a place and a day and a time
A place and a day and a time (A day and a time)
And then we'll be lovers
Loving and loving, oh love is the way
To make me stay, make me stay
[Verse 6]
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
Wanna love, wanna love, wanna love, wanna love
Wanna love, wanna love, (Girl) wanna love
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
Wanna love, wanna love, wanna love, wanna love
Wanna love, wanna love, (Girl) wanna love
[Verse 7]
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
Wanna love, wanna love, wanna love, wanna love
Wanna love, wanna love, (Girl) wanna love
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
Wanna love, wanna love, wanna love, wanna love
Wanna love, wanna love, (Girl) wanna love
[Verse 8]
I wanna love, wanna have, wanna hold you girl (Girl)
So make me a believer
