Gowan - Tender Young Hero lyrics

(Lawrence Gowan)

You had the secret everybody envied

That many'd try to find but come up empty

Yeah, you make it easy

Or that's the way you make it seem

So for a day we'll let you

Live out all our dreams

Yeah - This is your big scene

Tender Young Hero

Up from zero

Take a look around

Shouldn't be too long

Unless I'm dead wrong

You'll be shot back down

Well for a while you seemed to act real humble

Then one by one we saw those virtues crumble

You'd snap your fingers

And everyone would start to crawl

Soon you'll be asking

"What's the meaning of it all"

Yeah - Then look out for that fall

Tender Young Hero

Up from zero

Take a look around

Shouldn't be too long

Unless I'm dead wrong

You'll be shot back down

Turning the world on

With a passion

That's the life you've found

Tender Young Hero

Bound for zero

You'll be shot back down

So soon that famous face

Will fade forever, will fall from grace

So don't be fooled

Forget your pride

Don't lose your soul

Tender Young Hero

Up from zero

Take a look around

Shouldn't be too long

Unless I'm dead wrong

You'll be shot back down

Turning the world on

With a passion

That's the life you've found

Tender Young Hero

Bound for zero

You'll be shot back down

Tender Young Hero

Tender Young Hero

Tender Young Hero

Tender Young Hero

Tender Young Hero

Tender Young Hero
