Flashback to another time
When I looked up to you
You were my hero
When my mum had the biggest smile
Now I haven't seen her dance in a while
You lost your job so we moved away
Said goodbye to my friends for a different place
But things had changed and you're not okay
You found the bottle and drank your problems away
So now
I'm saying goodbye
To the man
That I once knew
And now I'll hold onto
Just the memory of you
And you won't hear me calling
As my hero has fallen
So now
I'm saying goodbye
Goodbye
My mother warned me of a broken heart
When someone I loved would just walk away
I never thought that you would play this part
Took the light and left me alone in the dark
Fifteen years and you just walk away
No final hug or a last goodbye
You don't explain you've not a thing to say
Just left with memories of you that will never fade
So now
I'm saying goodbye
To the man
That I once knew
And now I'll hold onto
Just the memory of you
And you won't hear me calling
As my hero has fallen
So now
I'm saying goodbye
Goodbye ooh
I come home from school
And I see my mum crying
She says you'll be back
But I know she's lying
My hero has fallen
He's just a broken man
So now
I'm saying goodbye
To the man
That I once knew
And now I'll hold onto
Just the memory of you
And you won't hear me calling
As my hero has fallen
So now
I'm saying goodbye
Goodbye
You won't hear me calling
As my hero fallen
You won't hear me calling
As my hero fallen
Goodbye
