Out of the mist of history He'll come again Sailing on ships across the sea To a wounded Nation Signs of a savoir Like fire on the water It's what we 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 lies Surrounded by hopelessness He finds the will to fight Theres 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 the crimson tide 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 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
