[Verse 1]
You always were there,
Always beside me
Holding my hand every step of the way
Through these eyes, you could do no wrong
In these eyes, you were brave and strong
In my heart, those days live on

[Chorus 1]
You were my hero.
Hero!
You were my hero.
Whoa, whoa!
Yeah

[Verse 2]
What does it take to be a hero?
What does it take to be a man?
I'm lookin' down into my young boy's eyes
As I feel his love, oh I realize,
The torch has passed along,
On and on

[Chorus 2]
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
Oh, whoa
[Verse 3]
Feeling is everywhere
It's all around us
It lives inside the hearts of you and me
Now it's our time to keep our country strong
Can see that no man's son will walk alone
Oh just take my hand
Come on, take my hand

[Chorus 2]
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
Oh, whoa

[Bridge]
There's no greater pleasure,
Nothing greater to do
Just feelin' your love can feel fear out of you
I wanna be a,
I wanna be a hero

[Chorus 3]
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
I'll be your hero
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa
Yeah!
[Outro]
Hero!
