There’s a hero if you look inside your heart
You don’t have to be afraid of what you are.
There’s an answer if you reach into your soul
and the sorrow that you know will melt away

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you’ll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you.

It’s a long road when you face the world alone,
No one reaches out a hand for you to hold.
You can find love if you search within yourself
and the emptiness you felt will disappear.

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you’ll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you.

oh….Lord knows dreams are hard to follow,
But don’t let anyone tear them away.
Hold on, there will be tomorrow,
In time you’ll find the way

And then a hero comes along
with the strength to carry on
and you cast your fears aside
and you know you can survive.

So, when you feel like hope is gone
look inside you and be strong
and you’ll finally see the truth
that a hero lies in you
that a hero lies in … you
mmmm that a hero lies in…..you.
