Faded Hero (Tony Moore Vocals)

Once you sailed a fleet of mighty ships across the sea A thousand men at your command Climb the highest mountain, cross burning desert sands With your sword in hand Gallantly you’d stand and say, “I will defend her” Down through history, so many that you’ve saved Bravery and honor was your game Loner by circumstance, a soldier by trade You fall on foreign ground, you were glory bound and free Now it’s over Chorus: Faded hero The lights are burning low Are you just a memory? Are you someone I should know? Faded hero A legend from the past They say you fought for freedom And now you’re free at last Many have forgotten the sacrifices you have made Forgotten the bloodshed and the pain They walk this land you fought so desperately to save The names they never knew some of us still do recall Forgotten soldier Repeat chorus Wave the flag, your chest will fill with pride Now you’re history, a man we cast aside Listen to the wind, I can hear you cry, “Don’t let the fire die.” Repeat chorus Repeat chorus Once you sailed a fleet of mighty ships across the sea A thousand men at your command
