Where have you been for so long
I've been waiting for another star
To rise in my night again
Give me a reason we all must carry on
Like all the heroes have done

Calling for courage, trying to do right
When the dust blows, and the light goes

One for the other, ready to do
It tomorrow, like it was the last show

Heroes, put to the test
Keeping a promise, doing their best
So you know, there'll always be heroes
