Where Are the Heroes?

Where are the heroes today?

The ones who come and chase bad away.

The ones who take you by the hand

The ones who give you a place to land.

Keep you on your feet and anchor you to the floor

So you aren't frightened anymore.

Where are all the heroes we want and need?

To heal broken hearts, not watch them bleed?

The ones who do more than just a good deed

The ones who come in and are bold

And give us a strong hand to hold

Where are the heroes of days gone by

Who helped those in need without asking why

The ones who loved with all their hearts

And never left someone falling apart.
