Lyrics Steve Lukather

Steve Lukather

Hero With A 1000 Eyes

We were told how the story should go

Strangers in time fighting ancient foes

And that only the way we perceive it

Has changed, it still remains

Somehow it's always right against wrong

Always the chance of temptation

But it's never as simple as black or white

Day or night

Ever searching for secrets of life

Missing the moments of being alive

But most important things can't be told

They're in your soul

Put away all your worry and pain

Destiny doesn't change things

When you find out what you really need

How will you know

How will I know

Well we all need a hero

Of mythical size

To explain what we can't understand

And we all need a hero

To sacrifice his soul

Where's the hero

With a thousand eyes

With another foolproof plan

You only can see through

The strange disguise

Any maybe find yourself

Deep inside this living hell

That knows you oh so well, knows you so well

Now we won't need a hero

With a thousand eyes

To explain what we can't understand

We won't need a hero

To sacrifice his soul

Who's the hero

With a thousand eyes

With another useless plan

Now we see through

The strange disguise

So you can find yourself

Deep inside this living hell

That knows you oh so well

Knows you so well.
