Out of the mist of history, he'll come again
Sailing on ships across the sea, to a wounded nation
Signs of a savior, like fire on the water
It's what we've prayed for, one of our own
Just wait, though while 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 while 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 while he may roam
Always
A hero comes home
He knows, of places unknown
But always
A hero comes home
Someday they'll carve in stone
"The hero comes home"
He goes, and comes back alone
But always
A hero comes home
Just wait, though while he may roam
Always
A hero comes home!
