Adam Young said, “The older I get, the more inspired I am to write music about my own personal stories and relationships. One of the most important relationships in my life is the one I have with my dad. I imagine to everyone else, he is just a normal guy: friendly, down-to-earth, patient, laid-back...
[Verse 1]
He doesn't fight crime or wear a cape
He doesn't read minds or levitate
But every time my world needs saving
He's my Superman
Some folks don't believe in heroes
'Cause they haven't met my dad
[Verse 2]
He loves his workshop and rock 'n roll
He's got a hot rod and a heart of gold
And you could say he's a man of few words
But he talks a lot within
And even though' I'm a little taller
I still look up to him
[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me
[Verse 3]
Rust ridden fenders and doors full of dings
Somehow he can fix about anything
I didn't think he knew how to cry
Till our dog died that year
He doesn't always say I love you
But I can hear him loud and clear
[Chorus]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see that
My dad's a hero to me
[Outro]
He built me a house in the arms of a tree
He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream
When he looks in my eyes, I hope he can see
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me
My dad's a hero to me

“As an introvert, I’ve haven’t been overly vocal in telling the people in my life that I cherish them. This song is just my way of telling my dad how much I respect and appreciate him. I only hope to someday be as good of a man as he is. To everyone else, he is a normal guy, but to me he is a hero,...
