Heroes
By Ann Reed
What can I learn from you?
In your lifetime, what you’ve been through
How’d you keep your head up and hold your pride?
In an insane world, how’d you keep on trying?
One life can tell the tale
That if you make the effort, you cannot fail
By your life you tell me it can be done
By your life’s courage to carry on
Heroes…
Here like a friend
To clear a path or light the flame
As time goes, you find you depend on your heroes…to show you the way
Heroes…
What can I learn from you?
That I must do the thing I think I cannot do
That you do what’s right by your heart and soul
It’s the imperfections that make us whole
One life can tell the tale
That if you make the effort, you cannot fail
By your life you tell me it ca be done
By your life’s courage to carry on
Heroes..
Here like a friend …….To clear a path or light the flame
As time goes, you find you depend on your heroes….
