Hero

There's some days that are bad right from the start

There's some words that seem to leave a mark

There are times you'd rather an arrow through the heart

Than to keep walking this tightrope in the dark

I saw you stumble, I saw you fall

I saw you rise up above it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring

All of us here we will stand and sing

You're my hero, the way you go through it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring

All of us here we will stand and sing

You're my hero, you're my hero

Only we know you faced the great divide

Only you know what it took to make it to the other side

You stared down your monster when every muscle wanted to hide

And I wish you hadn't had to, but now you're stronger inside

I saw you stumble, I saw you fall

I saw you rise up above it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring

All of us here we will stand and sing

You're my hero, the way you go through it all

You don't know dear what the day may bring

All of us here we will stand and sing

You're my hero, you're my hero

You light up my life, you light up my life, you light up my life

(You light up my life, you light up my life, you light up my life) [x2]

You were just waiting for the day to arrive

Just a bird in a cage waiting for the sunlight

You were just waiting, but now is the time

Cause you are alive, you are alive

You don't know dear what the day may bring

All of us here we will stand and sing

You're my hero

Cause you're my hero, cause you're my hero

Cause you're my hero, you're my hero
