Dear kid, I wrote to say
Another 7 minutes won't go to waste
So, let it take you so deep
In a world of it's own
Where the path shines bright and the stars look over

Take life, hold it tight
Kiss it 'till it's love struck
Pack a ship full of old framed dreams
And sail over swells of drowning tears
Every rather in your eye is the captain of each tear
Yours truly, I believed

Everybody needs a hero, when that last tear drop falls
On broken pieces lying next to me
They watched us break down the walls

Of what they told us was nothing
We had time to make a memory
So, they watched us do something that makes proud of what's become of me

Dear kid, another year has passed by
Every night in your sleep with high hopes by your side
And wake up to write down the words that you thought of
When you walk the streets alone in a world so make believe
It could be anything, you could be anything
Yours sincerely, you believed

Everybody needs a hero, when that last tear drop falls
On broken pieces lying next to me
They watched us break down the walls

Of what they told us was nothing
We had time to make a memory
So, they watched us do something that makes proud of what's become of me

So, promise me, you'll never stop
Just forget everything, inside your heart
When this turns to war the dreamer inside will save you

So, promise me, without lies
And just the truth
That the lies behind every piece of heart you hide inside your mind
You won't leave the world where the dreamer inside you divides you

Dear kid, let nothing hold you back
And let nothing stop you from achieving your dreams
Nothing is ever as bad as it seems
It may not be easy, but the battle will only make the outcome more satisfying

Your journey will be a tough one
But the sight along the way will shine brighter than any star that shines in the sky
I'll be looking back smiling for as long as your looking ahead
Yours sincerely, I believed

I believed

Dear kid, I wrote this to say
You'll write this song again one day
You'll walk those steps
Into the place where the light shine bright
And the world looks over... woah, woah, woah

Everybody needs a hero, when that last tear drop falls
On broken pieces lying next to me
They watched us

Of what they told us was nothing
We had time to make a memory
So, they watched us do something that makes proud of what's become of me

Dear kid, I wrote this to say
Another 7 minutes won't go to waste
So let it take you so deep in a world of it's own
Where the path shines bright
And the stars look over

Take life, hold it tight
Kiss it 'till it's love struck
Pack a ship full of old framed dreams
You sailed over swells that drown from the seas
And we write these words from where I'd rather be
I believed
