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 its kept me waiting nights, wondering;   Lying in the dark, just asking why?   I've always been told, you won't be called home, until its 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 that 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.   You're such a part of who I am,   now that part will just be void.   No matter how much I need you now   heaven needed you more      cos 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 that heaven was needing a hero    like you      yes heaven was needing a hero   and thats you...
