Europe — Hero

It's not like I wouldn't dream, if you had not shown the way It's not like I wouldn't fight, not knowing 'bout your life It's not like I wouldn't stand, right here with my friends But you threw us all a line, when our days slipped away You gave us of your time 'Cause you were my hero, my Friday night You wrote the soundtrack to my life And gave me something to hold on to When I was growing up you were the rock In my life It's not like I live my days by every word you spoke Like I'm up every night drinking with your ghost It's not like I can't look back without moving on But you still throw me that line, as my days slipped away You give me of your time 'Cause you were my hero, my Friday night You wrote the soundtrack to my life And gave us kids a chance to dream Days when I had enough, you were the rock In my life (solo) You still throw me that line, as my days slipped away You give me of your time You're still my hero, my Friday night You wrote the soundtrack to my life You give me something to hold on to As I'm still growing up you are the rock In my life
