He's everybody's hero
Come here to make us feel
The losses as we let them go
We need him here to heal

She's everybody's lover
Caught stealing every scene
And when she's left another
Love's not the way it seems

It's everybody's birthday
No space to catch our breath
No time to set another date
Life's come to sit with death

He's everybody's hero
And looking for his love
She didn't want a hero
He thought it was enough

When every door is shuttered
And truths all turned to lies
Our heroes and our lovers
Will show us what we prize
