John Paul Young - Yesterday's Hero lyrics

When I walk down the streets See the people who stop and stare and say Haven't I seen that face somewhere a long time ago When I walk down the streets See the stranger who says 'why, hi' With a 'how you goin', buddy' When you walked on by I thought I'd say hallo They say: haven't I seen your face before Weren't you the boy that used to live next door Weren't you on television every night Haven't I seen you round Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero Yesterday's hero, that's all I'll be Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero And yesterday's hero is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together Make a new start and be somebody better All that I'll be if I don't get together now When you walk down the streets If you know me, then pa** me by If you wonder what I'm doing Don't ask me why I don't read the news When you walk down the streets If you're sorry then don't feel bad If you followed my story Then just be glad you ain't in my shoes Because haven't you seen my face before Yes, I was the boy who used to live next door Yes, I was on television every night Haven't you seen me round Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero Yesterday's hero, that's all I'll be Take a look at me, I'm yesterday's hero And yesterday's hero is all that I'm gonna be if I don't get together Make a new start and be somebody better All that I'll be if I don't get together now Yesterday's hero, yesterday's hero Yesterday's hero, yesterday's hero
