Lirieke: Messina Jo Dee. Heaven Was Needing A Hero.
I came by today to see you
Oh I had to let you know
If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time
I'd have held you and never let go
Oh it's kept me awake nights wondering
Lying in the dark asking why
I've always been told you won't be called home
Until it's your time
I guess heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe
And follow it through
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero like you
I remember the last time I saw you
Oh you held your head up proud
I laughed inside when I saw how you were
Standing out in the crowd
Your such a part of who I am
And now that part will just be void
No matter how much I need you now
Heaven needed you more
'Cause heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe
And follow it through
Why I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero just like you
Heaven was needing a hero
That's you
Oh I had to let you know
If I knew the last time that I held you was the last time
I'd have held you and never let go
Oh it's kept me awake nights wondering
Lying in the dark asking why
I've always been told you won't be called home
Until it's your time
I guess heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe
And follow it through
When I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero like you
I remember the last time I saw you
Oh you held your head up proud
I laughed inside when I saw how you were
Standing out in the crowd
Your such a part of who I am
And now that part will just be void
No matter how much I need you now
Heaven needed you more
'Cause heaven was needing a hero
Somebody just like you
Brave enough to stand up for what you believe
And follow it through
Why I try to make it make sense in my mind
The only conclusion I come to
Is heaven was needing a hero just like you
Heaven was needing a hero
That's you
