Lyrics
Intro (Verse 2x instrumental)
Verse
Started out today like any other day the mask put me on and smiled
Flew around the world and bagged a couple bad men and I was back in five yeah
Refrain
Verse
From high up on a roof top I caught a glimpse of what was not basically right
Spun a web so they could not take away what little was left inside, yeah
Refrain
Chorus
But if I were a hero maybe I’d bring a different change of clothes
If I were a hero maybe I’d sing a song nobody knows
If I were a hero may you’d see a different side of me
Verse (2x) (instrumental)
Verse
Ended up today like any other day a mirror reflection in style
Sped around the globe and took back what they’d stolen and logged a million miles, yeah
Refrain
Verse
Through a small window I caught you looking so desperately nice
And wondered if I could find a way to tell you that you were right, yeah
Refrain
Chorus
But if I were a hero maybe I’d dream of unconventional things
If I were a hero maybe I’d go somewhere more unknown
If I were a hero maybe I’d be for you a little more me
Verse (2x) (instrumental)
Bridge
You’re so lovely that I might stick around tonight
I like how you speak so softly so that the sound doesn’t bite quite
Chorus
If I were a hero maybe I’d try to leave it all behind
If I were a hero maybe I’d throw it all out you know
If I were a hero maybe it’d be just you and me
Verse (2x) (instrumental)
