Lyrics

YESTERDAY'S HEROES

Yesterday's Heroes, Where have you gone?
Long summer days , spent on My front lawn,
Reading your mysteries and sharing your adventures!
Where have you gone?

Now that I have grown, where are you now?
Reading the Journal doesn't get it somehow.
I need your help, won't you please talk to me,
Talk to me!
Please talk to me!

Saturday heroes, movie matinees.
Reading your comics, each and everyday.
Living a life of fantasy, where are you now,
Where are you now?
Where are you now?

Yesterday's Heroes, Where are you now?
Not having Heroes has hurt our children somehow.
You seemed so real, now that you're gone ,
I can't go on!
Anymore!
Anymore!
