Everybody Needs A Hero lyrics

He Wakes Up And Calls His Daddy`s Name
His Eyes Light Up, As He Walks In
He`s No Knight In Shining Armour, He`s No Superman
And How His Son Could Look Up To Him
He`ll Never Understand
And In This Young Boy`s Eyes, He Sees The Man
Who Can Do No Wrong

He Believes In Fairy Tales And Santa Claus
And The Gold Over The Rainbow
But The Man`s Just Flesh And Blood
He`ll Never Measure Up
To What He Sees In Him
Oh, God Knows Everybody Needs A Hero

Toy Soldiers In The Attics
Storybooks All Put Away
He Don`t Act The Way He Used To
His Mind`s On Other Things These Days
`Saw The Broken Glass In The Mirror
And The Bruise Under Mama`s Eye
This Man He Thought The World Of
Now He`s Wishin` He Would Die
Childhood Dreams And Innocence Fade Away
Those Days Are Gone

When He Believed In Fairy Tales And Santa Claus
And The Gold Over The Rainbow
But The Man`s Just Flesh And Blood
Could Never Measure Up
To What He Saw In Him
Oh, God Knows Everybody Needs A Hero

He Had His First Child
The Day His Daddy Passed Away
And Sometimes When He Looks At Him
He Can See His Daddy`s Face
Well He Learned Life`s Hard Lesson
He`ll Never Be The Same
He`ll Dedicate His Heart To The One
Who Bears His Name
And In The Child`s Eyes
He Sees The Man Who Can Do No Wrong, Oh No

He Believes In Fairy Tales And Santa Claus
And The Gold Over The Rainbow
But The Man`s Just Flesh And Blood
He`ll Never Measure Up
To What He Sees In Him
Oh, God Knows Everybody Needs A Hero
