I Don't Need a Hero Lyrics

You always said I was a liar 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 but now that I'm older
I don't need a father, I don't wanna be your mother
It's just that anyone of us is half without another one is you, is you

The colors of that piece of time and still so fresh inside my mind
And it makes the movie of my like seem pale
And all the games I have to play, I got to give a lot of me away
But the part with us will never be for sale

And I don't need a hero, I don't need a soldier
Did when I was younger but now that I'm older
I don't need a father, I don't wanna be your mother
It's just that anyone of us is half without another one is you

The words of love have been confused the ways of love have been abused
Is this a lottery you win or lose? I don't know
It's a endless circle over time the place inside where I hold and find
Your sweet and happy music in my soul


And I don't need a hero and I don't need a soldier
I did when I was younger but now I am so much that I'm older
I don't need a father, I don't wanna be your mother
It's just that anyone of us is half without another one is you, is you

Concrete Blonde is an alternative rock band dating from the early 1980s to the early 1990s (and re-formed again in the 2000s). They are best known for the poignant songwriting and vocals of Johnette Napolitano.

Singer / songwriter / bassist Napolitano formed the band Dream 6 with guitarist James Mankey in Los Angeles in 1982, releasing an eponymous EP in France on the Happy Hermit label in 1983. When they signed with IRS in 1986, labelmate Michael Stipe suggested the name Concrete Blonde, describing the contrast between their hard rock music and introspective lyrics. They were joined by drummer Harry Rushakoff on their eponymous debut album. Roxy Music drummer Paul Thompson replaced Rushakoff on Bloodletting and several tracks on Mexican Moon, while Rushakoff was in treatment for drug addiction. Rushakoff was kicked out of the band in 2002 for failing to show up for several rehearsals and shows. He was replaced by Gabriel Ramirez.

Their most popular album was 1990's Bloodletting. The band broke up in 1995, but reunited in 2001, releasing Group Therapy in 2002 and Mojave in 2004. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
