  • Girls you know
    When you're in the mood (in the mood)
    You may meet a man
    Who can't do anything good (nothing good)
    But you've got to pity him
    And try to understand (understand)
    That a hero, a hero is so hard to find

    When he takes you
    For his love (for his love)
    And he tries to tell you
    There isn't any other (don't believe him)
    Oh, he may kiss you
    And tell you he'll miss you (such a shame)
    But don't forget, a hero is so hard to find

    When he says hello
    Don't forget they're all the same (you know they're all the same)
    You may end up sitting all alone
    And with yourself to blame, ooh don't you let him

    (Heroes are) so when he tells you
    You've got diamonds in your eyes (he's just lying)
    Don't get carried away
    'Cause you know he's selling you lies (he's just lying)
    So when you get the feeling
    The man you've got's no good (he's no good)

    Well just remember, a hero is so hard to find
    Well just remember, a hero is so hard to find
    Heroes, heroes are hard to find
    Heroes, heroes are hard to find
    Heroes, heroes are hard to find
    Heroes, heroes are hard to find Writer/s: Christine McVie
