Complete Lyrics of Hero
Verse 1
I’m no superman
I can’t take your hand
And fly you anywhere you wanna go, yeah
I can’t read your mind
Like a billboard sign
And tell you everything you wanna hear
But I’ll be your hero
Chorus
I, I can be everything you need
If you’re the one for me
Like gravity, I’ll be unstoppable
I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy with heart and soul
But if you’re the one for me
Then, I’ll be your hero
Then, I’ll be your hero, yeah
I’ll be your hero
Verse 2
Searching high and low
Trying every row
If I see your face, I’ll barely know, yeah
I put my trust in faith
That you will come my way
And if it’s right, it’s undeniable, yeah
I’ll be your hero
Chorus
I, I can be everything you need
If you’re the one for me
Like gravity, I’ll be unstoppable
I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy with heart and soul
But if you’re the one for me
Then, I’ll be your hero
Then, I’ll be your hero, yeah
I’ll be your hero
Bridge
So incredible
Some kind of miracle
That when it’s meant to be
I’ll become a hero, oh
So I’ll wait, wait, wait, wait for you
Yeah, I’ll be your hero
Chorus
I, I can be everything you need
If you’re the one for me
Like gravity, I’ll be unstoppable (be unstoppable)
I, yeah, I believe in destiny
I may be an ordinary guy with heart and soul
But if you’re the one for me
Then I’ll be your hero
Then, I’ll be your hero
