 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

A man has his own way
Each moment in time
The innocence of a child, in his eyes
Moments they were precious few
My memories of you
Answers are hard
To questions of the heart
 
Can't hold you, please hear me
I'll tell you that I love you
Can you see me, are you listening
In heaven above
 
A champion, a hero
A star in the sky
Hurray for the hero
The hero in all our hearts
 
A castle, a strange emptiness
An unbroken bond
With strength and forgiveness
For memories of the heart
The world revolving each day
A kind and his queen
A place for a hero
In everlasting love
 
Can't hold you, please hear me
I'll tell you that I love you
Can you see me, are you listening
In heaven above
 
The world of so long ago
Was so different then
But keep it together
