It's a fallen soldier with a purple heart
|
A teacher grading papers after dark
|
A preacher prayin' over a man's last day
|
A shoulder to a runaway
|
Givin' money to a perfect stranger
|
Counselor workin' past the anger
|
Fire fighters walking into the danger
|
The day the towers fell
|
|
In the heart of a hero
|
Lies a courage you can't see oh no
|
How far it goes, until the jumpin' in
|
And that yearning to do what's right
|
Goes deeper than that fear inside
|
If you ask them, they'd do it all again
|
That's the heart of a hero
|
|
It's a daddy lovin' his little girl
|
That girl growin' up to change the world
|
She's teaching her grandpa how to read
|
He had to quit school to plant the seeds
|
Now that farmer reads out loud at night
|
Words strongly read and full of line
|
Of a simple man who was left to die
|
With needles in his hand
|
|
In the heart of a hero
|
Lies a courage you can't see oh no
|
How far it goes, until the jumpin' in
|
And that yearning to do what's right
|
Goes deeper than that fear inside
|
If you ask them, they'd do it all again
|
That's the heart of a hero
|
Yeah the heart of a hero
|
|
When love picked you up, carried you through the storm
|
It's in that very moment, a hero is born
|
|
In the heart of a hero
|
Lies a courage you can't see oh no
|
How far it goes, until the jumpin' in
|
And that yearning to do what's right
|
Goes deeper than that fear inside
|
If you ask them, they'd do it all again
|
That's the heart of a hero
|
Yeah the heart of a hero
|
