Tender Young Hero Lyrics - Gowan

(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
