Paul Overstreet - Heroes lyrics

[Verse 1] He drives into the city, works extra hard all day He finishes up early so he can get away 'Cause there's a blue-eyed kid on second base Wants Dad to watch him play And Daddy knows he's waiting so he hurries on his way [Chorus] 'Cause you know heroes come in every shape and size Making special sacrifices for others in their lives No one gives 'em medals, the world don't know their names But in someone's eyes, they're heroes just the same [Verse 2] She rocks her crying baby in the hours before dawn; She whispers words of hope to help her husband to hold on; She takes time with the children making sure they know she cares She's more than just a momma, she's the answer to their prayers [Chorus] 'Cause you know heroes come in every shape and size Making special sacrifices for others in their lives No one gives 'em medals, the world don't know their names But in someone's eyes, they're heroes just the same [Verse 3] Now I don't pretend to know you but I'll bet it's safe to say There's someone out there somewhere looking up to you today And they see everything you do except for your mistakes You may not think you measure up but you got all it takes [Chorus] 'Cause you know heroes come in every shape and size Making special sacrifices for others in their lives No one gives 'em medals, the world don't know their names But in someone's eyes, they're heroes just the same No one gives 'em medals, the world don't know their names But in someone's eyes, they're heroes just the same [Tag] Yeah, in someone's eyes they're heroes just the same Talkin' 'bout heroes Special kind of heroes No ordinary heroes Talkin' 'bout a hero Special kind of hero
