Hero

Mariah Carey

---

There's a hero 
If you look inside your heart 
You don't have to be afraid 
Of what you are 
There's an answer 
If you reach into your soul 
And the sorrow that you know 
Will melt away 

And then a hero comes along 
With the strength to carry on 
And you cast your fears aside 
And you know you can survive 
So when you feel like hope is gone 
Look inside you and be strong 
And you'll finally see the truth 
That a hero lies in you 

It's a long road 
When you face the world alone 
No one reaches out a hand 
For you to hold 
You can find love 
If you search within yourself 
And the emptiness you felt 
Will disappear 

And then a hero comes along 
With the strength to carry on 
And you cast your fears aside 
And you know you can survive 
So when you feel like hope is gone 
Look inside you and be strong 
And you'll finally see the truth 
That a hero lies in you 

Lord knows 
Dreams are hard to follow 
But don't let anyone 
Tear them away 
Hold on 
There will be tomorrow 
In time 
You'll find the way 

And then a hero comes along 
With the strength to carry on 
And you cast your fears aside 
And you know you can survive 
So when you feel like hope is gone 
Look inside you and be strong 
And you'll finally see the truth 
That a hero lies in you
