Who Is The Hero

Who's gonna brush back your pretty blonde hair?
And who's gonna star in your next affair?
And who's gonna litter your shadow with gold?
And shelter your body when you froze in the cold?
Who is this man who lives with no coat?

And who's gonna track down and crack your disguise?
And break all the locks to your fortress service?
And throw back the door so your thoughts all run free?
To be lost by the wind, drown by the sea
For you are rendered by some mystery

Who is the hero who crawls in the night?
And seeks his rewards without any fight?
Who is the hero and does he stand true?
And is he standing before you?

Is it just backstreet visions of lonesome hotels?
Where you threw all your coins into wishing wells
And you walked all the streets and you read all the signs
To seek out a gypsy to read your lifelines
But you lost direction and you stumbled outright

Who is the hero who crawls in the night?
And seeks his rewards without any fight?
Who is the hero and does he stand true?
And is he standing before you?

Yes who is the hero who crawls in the night?
And seeks his rewards without any fight?
Who is the hero and does he stand true?
And is he standing before you?
