Out of the mist of history he'll come again Sailing on ships across the sea to a wounded nation Signs of a savior and fire on the water It's what we prayed for, one of our own Just wait though wide he may roam Always a hero comes home He goes where no one has gone But always a hero comes home Deep in the heart of darkness sparks a dream of light Surrounded by hopelessness he finds the will to fight There's no surrender, always remember It doesn't end here, we're not alone Just wait though wide he may roam Always a hero comes home He goes where no one has gone But always a hero comes home And he will come back on a crimson tide Dead or alive And even though we know the bridge has burned He will return... He will return! Just wait though wide he may roam Always a hero comes home He knows of places unknown But always a hero comes home Someday he may carve his stone The hero comes home He goes and comes back alone But always a hero comes home Just wait though wide he may roam Always a hero come home!
