A Special Kind Of Hero (Official Song Of World Cup 1986)

Ah . . .
Waiting for a very special sign
Telling of a very special time
Leaving just the chance to stake a claim
In a very different kind of game
Just one chance to be held up high
Or be cut down

Sink or swim, swim or drown
Can you see the gap between right and wrong
Tearful sounds and a joyful song
Reaching for the hands of love
Hoping to be pulled above

... my fame, to be a special kind of hero
My new found game, to be a special kind of hero

I need you       need you with me
My      hero    how you bring me

Feelings like I cannot explain
Warmth that feeds from my pain
Capturing moments in time
That the world can never replace
Forever suspended in space

Moments of a very special kind
Immortalize an aspect of the mind
Moving past limits of those above
Guided by a vision of their love
Into places never seen before
Where I can be a certain kind
I want to be a hero in my mind
With very special guidance from above
and very precious moments of my love
