I ran into you today

You were in a hurry I said ‘I’m good’ okay, so I lied

You walked away thinking that he’s alright

But I am dying inside

Save me from saying that it’s ‘just fine’

While I’m fallin’ behind

Everybody’s lookin’ for a hero

Could you be mine?

What will you do today when you see me again?

Maybe you’ll stay or walk by

You always wait till it’s about too late

Or till I fall out of line

Save me from saying that it’s ‘just fine’

While I’m fallin’ behind

Everybody’s lookin’ for a hero

Could you be mine?

Some days you’re giving up

Some days you fight for us

Baby I’m a slave to your whims

A hero? A villain? A soldier or civilian?

Well you’ve got the power to save

And you’ve got the power to break me

What will you do today when you see me again?

Maybe you’ll stay by my side

Save me from saying that it’s ‘just fine’

While I’m fallin’ behind

Everybody’s lookin’ for a hero

Could you be mine?

Could you be my hero?
