Growing up,
I wanted to be
Someone the world
Needed me to be

I wanted to help,
I'd try to save lives
But it's not much use
When you're not even five

All of my life
I've wanted to be
A world-class hero
I'd be a first-rate hero
For the world

Call my name,
And I'd be there
Ready to help
Right away right there

I'd save all the world
Everyone would need me
It would calm them all down
Just to let them see me

All of my life
I've wanted to be
A world-class hero
I'd be a first-rate hero
For the world

Having grown,
I know it now
The world is much too big to
Save it all right now

I'd be content
To let it all go
If you'd let me be
Just your hero

All of my life
I've wanted to be
A world-class hero
I'd be a first-rate hero
For the world

The rest of my life
I just want to be
Someone's hero
I would be one man's hero
All his life

Say my name
I'd want to be there
Ready to save you--
Darling, I'd be there

The rest of my life
I just want to be
Someone's hero
I will be someone's hero
By myself.
