Heart of a lion fight to the end Run like the wind Champion of champions, best in the land, you always win
Don't fade away, don't fade away Run with your dream right to the end Your spirit flies on eagle wings Never coming down
Fallen heroes no more worship Where have all the good times gone Once I stood atop this mountain Glory days set like the sun Sitting all alone staring at the screen, thinking the past Living in a land of faded memories Realise that nothing lasts
Don't fade away, don't fade away Reach out to you but you're not there Your soul was never meant to be Tied to the ground Fallen heroes no more worship Where have all the good times gone Once I stood atop this mountain Glory days set like the sun Took away my fame and fortune Left me with no place to go Fallen hero, modern reject They don't remember yesterday
The hero falls into disgrace Out of time and out of place Still part of me and part of you Would love to be a hero too
