Let Me Be Your Hero

I can tell, that something's wrong
I can see it in his eyes, his mind is way far - off
He seems distracted, by what? I do not know
I need you to trust in me, and let me in
(Oh just let me in)

You're not alone
I will be your faith and hope
I will stand by you
Together we'll make it through

It's just like him, to hide in all the bad things
Slowly fading, into the dark unkown
I know that he is straining, craving, for the years that have gone by
Just leave it up to me, I'll turn back the hands of time
(Oh leave it up to me)

You're not alone
I will be your faith and hope
I will stand by you
Together we'll make it through

You're not alone....
No you are not alone....

You're not alone
You will never be alone again
You were once there for me
Now it's my turn to help you through

You're not alone
I am here to be your hope
I will stand by you
Together we'll make it through-

Oh (oooh-ooo-oooh-ooo-oooh-ooo-oooh-ooo)X3
Let me be there for you now


The author's comments:
Though it may not seem like it, I wrote this song as a sort of reply to Saosin's song "You're Not Alone". Their song was just so beautiful and upbuilding to me, I guess I wanted to just write a song that said "Thank you, thank you for saving me from my pit of sadness."

i can hear this as a duet with a soft acustic guitar in the background. Its a really beautiful song, i see this as a number one hit someday.
