You always said it was a lie, but we burn like a house on fire No matter what you know that to be true And everything you gave to me changed everything I used to be Much more than anyone I ever knew And I don't need a hero, I don't need a soldier Did when I was younger, now that I'm older I don't need a father, I don't wanna be a mother It's just that any one of us here has to have another one Is you Is you And the colors of that piece of time are still so fresh inside my mind Makes the movie of my life seem pale And all the games I have to play have gotta give a lot of me away Apart with us we'll never be for sale And I don't need a hero, I don't need a soldier Did when I was younger, now that I'm older I don't need a father, I don't wanna be a mother It's just that any one of us here has to have another one Is you Is you And I haven't seen the rain in this city in so long Is you The roads of love have been confused And the ways of love have been abused Is this a lottery, a win or a lose, I don't know It's an endless circle over time The place inside where I hold and find The sweet and happy music in my soul And I don't need a hero, I don't need a soldier I did when I was younger, but now I'm so much older I don't need a father, I don't wanna be your mother It's just that any one of us here has to have another one Is you Is you Is you
