my hero

a song for my husband - the strong, silent type. after our first natural disaster (tornado) together, i find i have a lot to learn about him...

i see you wincing through the pain

i would wipe the tears away

i feel you trembling in the rain

only i see you this way

i watch you as the days unfold

your patience, wearing thin

i wait to hear you speak to me,

oh baby, let me in 

the wind may blow our shelter down

the calm may never come

the hail may tear our world apart

and lead us far from home

still, in this storm i see you

i see you standing tall

your posture is sky-reaching

though the sky may truly fall

and fall and fall

i see you and i feel you

i would wipe the tears away

i know you and i love you

only i see you this way

i watch you as the days unfold 

your patience, wearing thin

i wait to hear you speak to me,

oh baby, let me in 

my hero

you’re reaching out to me

i’m the only one you hold like this

i feel you pull me in

my hero
