Hero
Nickelback · Other Songs - Nickelback
I am so high I can hear heaven
Oh but heaven, no heaven don't hear me
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
Someone told me love will all save us
But how can that be, look what love gave us
A world full of killing, and blood-spilling
That world never came
And they say that a hero can save us
Im not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
Now that the world isn't ending, it's love that I'm sending to you
It isn't the love of a hero, and that's why I fear it won't do
And they say that a hero can save us
I'm not gonna stand here and wait
I'll hold onto the wings of the eagles
Watch as we all fly away
And they're watching us (Watching us)
And they're watching us (Watching us)
As we all fly away (3x)
yeah...whoa
