Lyrics
Somebody's Hero Tonight
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Half of the time you just lie to me
half of the time you won't say
l don't know why we go on like we do
throwing our chances away
only a child with a broken heart
clearly in love but afraid of falling
who's gonna love you well I just might
be somebody's hero tonight
You start to cry then you turn away
so much for pretty goodbyes
you say it's time for my heart to move on
but l see something else in your eyes
making it easy won't make it right
and where will you go when the tears start falling
who's gonna love you well I just might
be somebody's hero tonight
Oh I wanna be somebody's hero
and I wanna make everything right
nobody else ever made me feel like I might
l just might
Turn around baby and look at me
I don't know what else I can say
lay down beside me and hold me tight
we'll love all our troubles away
even in dreams when it's dark and quiet
listen, and you can hear me calling
who's gonna love you well I just might
be somebody's hero tonight
Oh I wanna be somebody's hero
and I wanna make everything right
Nobody else ever made me feel like I might, I just might
Be somebody's hero, and I might everything right
cause nobody else ever made me feel like I might, I just might
Be somebody's hero tonight, somebody's hero tonight
