Out of the mist of history

He'll come again

Sailing on ships across the sea

To a wounded Nation

Signs of a saviour

Like fire on the water

It's what we prayed for

One of our own

Just wait

Though wide 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 wide 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 the crimson tide

Dead or alive

And even though we know the bridge has burned

He will return

He will return

Just wait

Though wide he may roam

Always

A hero comes home

He knows of places unknown

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 wide he may roam

Always

A hero comes home
