• lyrics

I've been reading books of old 

The legends and the myths

Achilles and his goldHercules and his giftsSpiderman's control 

And Batman with his fists 

And clearly I don't see myself upon that list 

She said "Where'd you wanna go? 

How much you wanna risk? 

I'm not looking for somebody 

With some superhuman gifts 

Some superheroSome fairy-tale bliss 

Just something I can turn to 

Somebody I can kiss 

"I want something just like this 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Oh I want something just like this 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

"Oh I want something just like this 

I want something just like this" 

I've been reading books of old 

The legends and the myths 

The testaments they told 

The moon and its eclipse
And Superman unrolls 

A suit before he lifts 

But I'm not the kind of person that it fits 

She said "Where'd you wanna go? 

How much you wanna risk? 

I'm not looking for somebody 

With some superhuman gifts 

Some superheroSome fairy-tale bliss 

Just something I can turn to 

Somebody I can miss" 

"I want something just like this 

I want something just like this" 

Oh I want something just like this 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Oh I want something just like this 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo 

Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo" 

"Where d'ya wanna go?

How much you wanna risk? 

I'm not looking for somebody 

With some superhuman gifts 

Some superheroSome fairy-tale bliss 

Just something I can turn to 

Somebody I can kiss 

I want something just like this"

"Oh I want something just like this 

Oh I want something just like this 

Oh I want something just like this 

Oh I want something just like this"

• My thoughts on the song

I think the lyrics is so wonderful.  For example, "Where'd you wanna go?How much you wanna risk? this lyric make me think about my goal and how do i pay my effort to attain it. This song talks about a girl's expectation of her prince charming. The girl need a man and he can love her. The man not should be a superman or a hero.

Though analyzing people's brain waves, we can understand what people think. For somebody who suffer from disease and can't talk, we also can analyze their brain to realize what they want to express.
