Phil Collins - Hero Lyrics
Collins demo version released as b-side of we wait and we wonder single,1994)Well it was one of those great storiesThat you cant put down at nightThe hero knew what he had to doAnd he wasnt afraid to fightThe villain goes to jail, while the hero goes freeI wish it were that simple for me.And the reason that she loved himWas the reason I loved him tooAnd he never wondered what was right or wrongHe just knew - he just knew.Shadows and shape mixed together at dawnBut by time you catch them simplicitys goneAnd so we sort through the piecesMy friends and iSearching through the darkness to findThe breaks in the sky.And the reason that she loved himWas the reason I loved him tooAnd he never wondered what was right or wrongHe just knew - he just knew.And we wonder, yes we wonderHow do you make sense of thisWhen the hero kills the maidenWith his kiss - with his kiss.Well it was one of those great storiesThat you cant put down at nightThe hero knew what he had to doAnd he wasnt afraid to fightThe villain goes to jail, while the hero goes freeI wish it were that simple for me- if it were that simple for me.
