Something Just Like This

Coldplay, The Chainsmokers

I've been reading books of old

The legends and the myths
Achilles and his gold
Underline words that you know
Hercules and his gifts
Spiderman's control and cognates in the song´s lyrics
And Batman with his fists
And clearly I don't see myself upon that list
But she said, where'd you wanna go? Underline words that you don’t know,
How much you wanna risk? make a list and search the meaning (at least
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts 12 words)
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to Use translator for following expresions:
Somebody I can Kiss
where'd you wanna go?
Chorus: How much you wanna risk?
I want something just like this I've been Reading…
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Oh, I want something just like this
Answer the following questions about the song
I've been reading books of old in english in your copybook (next page)
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

But she said, where'd you want to go?

How much you want to risk?
I'm not looking for somebody
With some superhuman gifts
Some superhero
Some fairytale bliss
Just something I can turn to
Somebody I can kiss
I want something just like this
I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
Oh, I want something just like this
