Hero Lyrics
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

there are two Mariah Carey's. one that made great songs like this and one that makes the stuff that sells today. both are creditable, but this stuff cannot be touched. simple, true, inspirational and just great.

it's great. it talkz about people who don't trust themselves, have no faith and self-confidence, they can search themselves and find that there's a hero inside,a hidden talent, everything...

This song brings me to tears or near tears every single time I hear it. In my town a guy named Nate saved one of his buddies and tried to save another one when they're boat capsized in rough water in the harbor. One of them survived with frostbite, the other died of hypothermia and other complications. Nate's body wasn't found. I know this song is about inner strength. But I always think about him when I hear this song because he helped his buddies get to safety and lost his own life in the process.

what ggroessl said was so fricking sad!! sniffs

i cant stand mariah carey, but i absolutley love this song!
Same here!
Same here!

I think this song isn't about yourself being a hero, I think it is about god being inside of you, and helping you when times are tough. He gives you strength and he is the hero saving you.

the most important song to me~ love it!

I Love This Song So Much...
The HERO IS OURSELF....MYSELF...
