A planet explodes
A baby sent in orbit. It lands in a field
They raise it as their own
He's here with us now
The one we turn to to save us
The last son to shine
We're counting on you
We're counting on you
To save us from a burning building
We're counting on you
To follow us in to the night
We're counting on you
To pull us up when we are drowning
We're counting on you to be true
As you are guarding from the shadows
A light in the sky
And then we know that you're around
So we sleep ever tight
As you're protecting from the rooftops
On the darkest of nights
We're counting on you
We're counting on you
To save us from a burning building
We're counting on you
When we are falling in the the night
We're counting on you
To tell us everything's all right
We're counting on you
To save us from a burning building
We're counting on you
We're counting on you
To follow us in to the night
We're counting on you
We're counting on you
To pull us up when we are drowning
And we're counting on you
And we're counting on you
