Hero Without A Mask Lyrics

He's no superhero, no cape on his back,

But he lifts me up high, higher than clouds' track.

With his shoulders as my wings, I laugh and I fly,

Seeing the world from the stars in his sky.

He's there with my friends, kicks the ball, runs the field,

Becomes a kid too, his laughter our shield.

Back from the grind, he's still ready to play,

Though he's tired, he's there at the end of each day.

You're my hero without a mask,

A warrior who takes on any task.

In your arms, I feel no fear,

The safest place when you're near.

You're the strength, the rock, the truth,

I wanna walk like you through my youth.

Under the lights as I play with my team,

I look to the sidelines, you're living my dream.

Cheering so loud, every goal, every miss,

You're with me through all of life's hits and bliss.

When joy fills my heart, I catch you in tears,

As if my happiness silences fears.

You've worked every day so my dreams could break free,

Sacrificed nights, just to be here with me.

Remember that time he tried cooking for me,

Set off the smoke alarm, we laughed till we'd weep.

Ordered junk food, hoping Mom wouldn't know,

Just him and me with cartoons and the show.

He handed me my first cold beer with a grin,

A quiet moment where we both let it sink in.

And when my heart broke, he just pulled me in tight,

Said, "It hurts now, but kid, you'll be all right."

You're my hero without a mask,

A warrior who takes on any task.

In your arms, I feel no fear,

The safest place when you're near.

You're the strength, the rock, the truth,

I wanna walk like you through my youth.

He tossed me the keys to his brand-new car,

Nervous as hell, but he stayed by my side.

Hands gripping tight, but he played it so cool,

Even when I swerved, breaking every rule.

I almost clipped a garbage can,

He just laughed and said, "You're doing fine, my man."

Taught me to steer with patience and grace,

Made me feel brave in that driver's place.

Even when the day comes you're gone from my sight,

I'll carry your lessons like stars in the night.

I'll stand strong and loyal, honest and brave,

To live like you taught, the love that you gave.

You're my hero without a mask,

A warrior who takes on any task.

In your arms, I feel no fear,

The safest place when you're near.

You're the strength, the rock, the truth,

I wanna walk like you through my youth.

You're my hero without a mask,

A warrior who takes on any task.

In your arms, I feel no fear,

The safest place when you're near.

You're the strength, the rock, the truth,

I wanna walk like you through my youth.

So here's to the man who needs no disguise,

Who lights up the world through a child's eyes.

My hero, my guide, my heart's warmest flame,

Forever, I'll try to honor your name.
