Ives The Band - The Hero lyrics
Your rating:
Wait for the sound, Guns ringing loud You could make your break for safety Sneak behind the clouds Smoke drifting in, It's close again Oh you thought your heart was in it But your feet won't move to the tune of those drums beating And all that while you're running through town The people will watch through the windows Can't you see them flagging you down They've already lost, you'll never be found But on the winds you'll hear them say That's awfully strange for a hero Won't sleep tonight, But whie it's light Gotta get as far away from feeling Quite hard to tell, Weren't those the bells Must've been a final plea for help A bleaker farewell, a last attempt to find you And all that while you were running through town The people they watched through the windows And you could see them flagging you down But they'd already lost, you'd never be found And now you know you heard them say That's terribly low for a hero And all the while you're running through town The people will stare through the windows And you can hear them cheering you on They've already won, they knew you would come And through the noise you'll hear them say That certainly looks like our hero
