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.

You were my hero.
Hero!
You were my hero.
Whoa, whoa!
Yeah.

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 joy you passed along,
All day long.

I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
Oh, whoa.

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.

I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
Oh, whoa.
 
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.

I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah.

I'll be your hero.
I'll be your hero.
I wanna be your hero.
Hero!
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Yeah.

I'll be your hero.
I wanna be your hero.
Hero!

I'll be your hero!
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I'll be your hero.
Hero!
