Hero

So I'm not sad
Or afraid to say
I truly like the way things are

The way you think about me
Whether you're
Near or far

I'm ok
With being your friend
When I call you in the middle of the day

I can hear the happiness
In your voice
And I know you love the things I say

But if things were different
And If I had my way
We would grow closer
And the doubt would fade away

The hero in you
Brings a song to my heart
And your innocence reminds me of an old familiar place

The hero in you
And the things that you do
Always leaves a smile on my face

I have said it before
And I'm telling the truth
I'm ok
With the way things are gonna be

The time spent
Is divine
Either your place or mine
But the one you love isn't me

If things were different
I would promise you the earth
And I would promptly take hold of your hand

I'd kiss you gingerly on the mouth
And with nary a doubt
I'd tell you I'm your biggest fan

But the hero in you
Brings a song to my heart
And always seems to fill the empty space

The hero in you
And the things you do
Take me to that old familiar place...To the feelings that I just can't seem to erase...
