A heartfelt song to people who do so many things for you and help others but expect nothing in return, and get nothing; an 'unsung hero' if you will. I wrote this to give them a spotlight for once, because all you unsung heroes out there freakin rule!
Unsung Hero
(long intro)
Whoa...yeah-eh...
No...
No, you will never know...
No, you will never find out
You will never find out
How much you mean to me
Deep down inside I cringe
Deep down inside I feel a
little twinge
Whenever you say you might go
No, i'll never let that
happen
You're too important
No, there's one thing I don't want
Because your an unsung hero
(chorus)
You don't know how much
you care
You don't know how much you help me
Deep down inside you're an unsung hero
Deep down inside I don't want you to go
Because you are an unsung hero
(fill - still chorus)
I look into your compassionate
eyes
Don't see no hate,
Don't see no lies
That's because you are one of a kind
You are an unsung hero to me, yeah
(fill, end of chorus)
I've never told you
Don't think I will ever do
I think you know that too
Yeah...
You don't know how much
you help
It just comes naturally
Because you are an unsung hero
To me...
(fill)
Whenever I'm feeling shame
When i've got everything to gain
You're right there
Like you are every time
In my life, yeah...
(kick in)
(chorus)
I know how much you mean
to me
I could never tell you
In plain and simple words
That's why I wrote this
song, yeah...
Because if I ever said that
To you tomorrow
I know that it would make my head hurt, yeah...
You help me believe in this
world
You help me believe that
there are good people out there
(build up during this)
You are always there for
me
Telling me who i'll be
And you never know
How much I love you
I could never tell you
I could never do it
I could never say it to you
It would just confuse it
I would never put you through
Anything that'd cause you pain
I know that i'd have nothing to gain,
Yeah...
(lead straight in)
(chorus)
Because you are an unsung
hero
Yeah, you are an unsung hero
I just thought i'd tell you
In case you didn't know...
(end)
