A TIME FOR HEROES

We search for an answer
And when it appears
We can challenge the world
With our sweat and our tears

Through winning and losing
Oh, the brave never bend
And the hero keeps fighting
Standing tall in the end

And time can heal anything
It can mend any fall
It's the moment of truth
That's facing us all

And it's time for the hero to stand tall

It's a time for heroes, time to answer the call
It's a time for the heroes… in us all

We carry the flame
For all to see
The fire and the passion
Of what we can be

And sometimes we must fight
Oh, but we'll never, never bend
And the hero keeps fighting
Standing tall in the end

And love can change anything
It's inside of us all
To reach out a hand now
Oh, whenever we fall

It's time for the hero to stand tall

It's a time for heroes, time to answer the call
It's a time for heroes to stand tall
It's a time for heroes, when our back's to the wall
It's a time for heroes… in us all....

[ guitar solo: Brian May ]

It's a time for heroes, deep inside of us all
It's a time for heroes
It's a time for heroes, time to answer the call
It's a time for heroes… to stand tall
It's a time for heroes, when our back's to the wall
It's a time for heroes....

(it's a time for heroes)
(it's a time for heroes)
(it's a time for heroes)
(it's a time for heroes)
(it's a time for heroes)....
