If Heaven Was Needing a Hero Songtext
von Jo Dee Messina

I came by today to see you
Though 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 wonderin′
I lie in the dark, just 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 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

'Cause 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

Is that Heaven was needing a hero, that′s you
