Somebody's Hero
She's never pulled anybody from a burning building
She's never rocked Central Park to a half a million
Fans screaming out her name
She's never hit a shot to win the game
She's never left her footprints on the moon
She's never made a solo hot air balloon ride around the world
No, she's just your everyday average girl, but
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her baby with a skinned-up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the Cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero, ohh
She didn't get a check every week like a nine-to-fiver
But she's been a waiter and a cook and a taxi driver
For 20 years there at home
Until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life's ambition
But now her baby's movin' on and she'll soon be missin' her
But not today
Those are tears of joy runnin' down her face
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest
It hurts to let her baby go down the aisle
She walks right by
Looks back into her mother's eyes
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero (hero)
Thirty years have flown right past
Her daughter's starin' (her daughter's starin') at all the photographs
Of her mother
And she wishes she could be like that
Oh, but she already is
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her mother in a rockin' chair
She runs a brush through her silver hair
The envy of the nursing home
She drops by every afternoon
Feeds her mama with a spoon
And that smile lets her know
Her mother's smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero...
She's never rocked Central Park to a half a million
Fans screaming out her name
She's never hit a shot to win the game
She's never left her footprints on the moon
She's never made a solo hot air balloon ride around the world
No, she's just your everyday average girl, but
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her baby with a skinned-up knee
A little kiss is all she needs
The keeper of the Cheerios
The voice that brings Snow White to life
Bedtime stories every night
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero, ohh
She didn't get a check every week like a nine-to-fiver
But she's been a waiter and a cook and a taxi driver
For 20 years there at home
Until the day her girl was grown
Giving all her love to her was her life's ambition
But now her baby's movin' on and she'll soon be missin' her
But not today
Those are tears of joy runnin' down her face
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her daughter in her wedding dress
She gave her wings to leave the nest
It hurts to let her baby go down the aisle
She walks right by
Looks back into her mother's eyes
And that smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero (hero)
Thirty years have flown right past
Her daughter's starin' (her daughter's starin') at all the photographs
Of her mother
And she wishes she could be like that
Oh, but she already is
She's somebody's hero
A hero to her mother in a rockin' chair
She runs a brush through her silver hair
The envy of the nursing home
She drops by every afternoon
Feeds her mama with a spoon
And that smile lets her know
Her mother's smile lets her know
She's somebody's hero...
