Out of the mist of history he'll come again

Sailing on ships across the sea to a wounded nation

Signs of a savior and fire on the water

Just wait though wide he may roam

Deep in the heart of darkness sparks a dream of light

It doesn't end here, we're not alone

Always a hero comes home

Dead or alive

And even though we know the bridge has burned

He will return… He will return!

Just wait though wide he may roam

Always a hero comes home

Someday he may carve his stone

The hero comes home

He goes and comes back alone

But always a hero comes home

Just wait though wide he may roam
