[Verse 1]
You’re the only one who made it through the fire, burning fire
You’re the only one who walked the water and made it to the other side
You’re the one who took away the feeling of falling
Only one who see’s the sun
You know I'm calling
You’re the one who took me by the hand
Showed me how to fly

[Pre-Chorus]
And i feel so safe that i’m up in your arms
Nothing can touch when i’m right where you are
You busted through the doors
You came up through the floor
Just in the nick of time to save me

[Chorus]
Oh, my heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
Oh, my heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
When there was no one else
You saved me from myself
Almost gave up on myself
'Til you rescued me
Oh, my heart never had a hero
A hero, a hero
(Never had a hero, a hero)

[Verse 2]
Faster than the speed of light
You come around and kill my lonely (My lonely, oh)
Better then the average man
You beat the odds, you're so incredible

[Verse 3]
Oh, you are
Never met someone so strong
Never breaks down
Never thought that I belong until you came around
Nothing in this world is like the feeling
Like when you hold, hold me, hold me

[Pre-Chorus]
And i feel so safe that i’m up in your arms
Nothing can touch when i’m right where you are
You busted through the doors
You came up through the floor
Just in the nick of time to save me

[Chorus]
Oh, my heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
Oh, my heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
When there was no one else
You saved me from myself
Almost gave up on myself
'Til you rescued me
Oh, my heart never had a hero
A hero, a hero
(Never had a hero, a hero)

[Bridge]
A hero, my heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
My heart never had a hero
Oh, oh

[Chorus]
Just in the nick of time to save me
My heart never had a hero
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
My heart never had a hero
Never had, baby
Oh oh
When there was no one else
You saved me from myself
Almost gave up on myself
Til you rescued me
Ahhh, my heart heart never had a hero
A hero
A hero
A hero
A hero
A hero
A hero
