Analysis of My Hero



You're my hero because you saved me from problems unknown
 You're my hero because you gave me the world as it is to
be shown
 You're my hero because you arranged every star up
above
 You're my hero because you gave me nothing but your
love
 You're my hero because I am your son
 You're my hero because you'll never leave me till my life is done
 You'll always be my hero, forever and ever
 I'll always miss you my hero because you are my father
Even though you're gone, I still love you till this day
 You being my hero will always stay that way.
