Heroes
Each of us have heroes in our lives
And usually they're not even aware
How the strength they have helps carry us
Though the times we didn't think that we could bear
And they show up in the most unlikely places
If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
The little boy that sits beside me, will never walk or talk or run
But when he reaches out to hold my hand, his smile says 'I love you mom'
And he don't know how many times that smile picks my spirits up
And he don't know how close, how often, his mom comes to giving up
He only knows the love he gives to her somehow helps her to survive
Because his body may be broken, but there's a hero deep inside
Each of us have heroes in our lives
And usually they're not even aware
How the strength they have helps carry us
Though the times we didn't think that we could bear
And they show up in the most unlikely places
If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
The man that softly sleeps beside me, could have turned his back and ran
But he chose to stick it out with me, and he loves me as I am
He's picked me up so many times when I was falling
And we are working towards tomorrow side by side
And he'd be the very last one to admit it
That man of mine's a hero in my eyes
Nearly fifty years of marriage lies between the two of them
But they're as in love at this moment, as they were a way back then
The world has never seen to stronger, steadfast parents
And to have grown up in their love, well lucky me
They're an example of exactly what we wish for
And when I look at them it's not the grey hair that I see
Each of us have heroes in our lives
And usually they're not even aware
How the strength they have helps carry us
Though the times we didn't think that we could bear
And they show up in the most unlikely places
If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
And usually they're not even aware
How the strength they have helps carry us
Though the times we didn't think that we could bear
And they show up in the most unlikely places
If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
The little boy that sits beside me, will never walk or talk or run
But when he reaches out to hold my hand, his smile says 'I love you mom'
And he don't know how many times that smile picks my spirits up
And he don't know how close, how often, his mom comes to giving up
He only knows the love he gives to her somehow helps her to survive
Because his body may be broken, but there's a hero deep inside
Each of us have heroes in our lives
And usually they're not even aware
How the strength they have helps carry us
Though the times we didn't think that we could bear
And they show up in the most unlikely places
If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
The man that softly sleeps beside me, could have turned his back and ran

If you're looking I can't tell you where to start
There's nothing extraordinary in their faces
You can only tell a hero by their heart
