Heroes

(album: World Radio - 1982)

I live in the times
That you left behind
I sold 'em my mind for nickels and dimes
I must have been blind
I search for the cause
That has no reward
I've tried to move on
But everyone's gone on and I
Can't get it back
No, I can't get it back
I'm always reaching for the right track
Where has it gone why can't I get it back
Where have my heroes gone
I've no-one to hold on to
I'm out here standing on a landslide
I'm out here falling through a paper sky
Where have my heroes gone
I've nothing to hold onto
Lost in a daze
I'll never erase
When radio waves
Would take us away
On dreams that we've made
Like an old song
I just don't belong
But I try to be strong
So let the music roll on
We can't get it back
Yes, I can't get it back
I'm always listening for the right track
And when it's gone I wanna play it back
Where have my heroes gone
I've no-one left to hold on to
I'm out here standing on a landslide
I'm out here falling through a paper sky
Where have my heroes gone
I've no one left to hold on to, oh
(Don't let those heroes die
Their songs have changed our lives
They came they saw
They conquered all
Don't let them die
And say goodbye
Am I always searching for the right track
Where have they have gone
Why can't I get it back
Where have my heroes gone
I've no-one left to hold on to
I'm out here standing on a landslide
I'm out here falling through a paper sky
Where have my heroes gone
I've no one left to hold on to
They're gone
(Don't let those heroes die
Their songs have changed our lives
They came they saw
They conquered all
Don't let them die
And say goodbye)
