Story Behind The Song

After seeing the pictures in the paper everyday of dead soldiers and with over 2000 dead, I wanted to write a song that expressed how we feel about them, without being political.

Song Description

Heroes who are soldiers sent to war, in distant places, may do heroic things, but they are still away from home missing family and friends and having to face their fears everyday.

Lyrics

Heroes
By Terence Davis
c copyright 2005

Heroes, Heroes are meant to be
Follow a beat of their own
Heroes, Heroes on distant shores
Putting it all on the line

Oceans of dreams, Lead the way
Carry them onto your shores
Oceans of dreams, Bring your waves
Carry them home, Oceans of Dreams

Heroes, faces we see each day
Memories we hope never fade
Heroes, lost are the plans they made
They'll stay forever unchanged

Oceans of dreams, lead the way
Carry them onto your shores
Oceans of dreams, bring your waves
Carry them home, Oceans of dreams

When seasons change, and they all should be home
Instead they're off in some foreign land
waiting for letters, to hold in their hands
Hold in their hands

Heroes, hearts beating far away
facing thier fears everyday
Heroes, finding a way to survive
Hoping they come home alive

Oceans of dreams, lead the way
Carry them home from your shores
Oceans of dreams,
When your waves are rough,
That's when you'll find,
There's a Hero in all,..... all of us,
Hero in all of us
