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.
