"A Hero Comes Home" lyrics - IDINA MENZEL

Out of the mist of history, he'll come again
Sailing on ships across the sea, to a wounded nation
Signs of a savior, like fire on the water,
It's what we've prayed for, one of our own

Just wait, though while he may roam,
Always,
A hero comes home
He goes, where no one has gone,
But always,
A hero comes home

Deep in the heart of darkness sparks, a dream of light
Surrounded by hopelessness, he finds the will to fight
There's no surrender, always remember,
It doesn't end here, we're not alone

Just wait, though while he may roam,
Always,
A hero comes home
He goes, where no one has gone,
But always,
A hero comes home

And he will come back on a crimson tide,
Dead or alive
And even though we know the bridge has burned,
He will return
He will return

Just wait, though while he may roam,
Always,
A hero comes home
He knows, of places unknown,
But always,
A hero comes home

Someday they'll carve in stone,
"The hero comes home"
He goes, and comes back alone,
But always,
A hero comes home

Just wait, though while he may roam,
Always,
A hero comes home!
