Al Basile - My Hero Lyrics

My Hero




My hero is what she says when she asks you to save her
My hero you know the sound sounded good to me
But the costume's loose and the cape don't fit
I don't know how to fly, that's the truth of it
Her hero is something I can never be

It was easy to see how bad her luck had been running
She didn't say it but she seemed to want something from me
She told me all she needed was one true friend
her story sounded pretty till I got to the end
Her hero is nothing I will ever be

You want to be the guy who saves somebody
the man people look up to
It's such a good fit, but it's hard to admit
there's some things you just can't do

Her story was no one ever stayed around to help her
The way she told it, her very last chance was me
I hurt my head beating it against the wall
nothing I could do ever helped her at all
Her hero is something I will never be

You want to be the guy who saves somebody
the man people look up to
It's such a good fit, but it's hard to admit
there's some things you just can't do

My hero is what she says when she asks you to save her
My hero you know the sound sounded good to me
But the costume's loose and the cape don't fit
I don't know how to fly, that's the truth of it
Her hero is something I will never be
