We've been here too long, on our own
A thousand miles from home,
with dust to kiss, we really miss,

the touch of tender lips,

Brother beside me i ask you politely,

won't you stand by me tonight
Brother beside me i ask you politely,
won't you stand by me tonight


As the enemy approach,
i take you by your arm

and i say.

We're all heroes tonight,

We're all heroes tonight,
cuz i know what your like,
i feel you in my bones,

i swear -
We're all heroes tonight


i picture his face and cry,
i carry his case as we walk the line,
he was too young to die,

now and forever he will lie,

Brother beside me, rest now and i'll be

right here for all of my days
Brother beside me, rest now and i'll be
right here for all of my days


As the enemy came close,
he stepped in front of me,

now i say -

He was a hero tonight

He was a hero tonight
cuz he gave up his life,
i carry him in my bones,

i swear -
He was a hero tonight


there all heroes tonight x4

there all heroes tonight


And i swear you'll always be remembered
yes i swear you'll always be remembered.
