Donna Martin: Listen

Heroes

(Donna Martin)

I'm ordinary can't you see

I've never been to Tennessee

or any other place that you call from

you live your life around the world

and hold on to a simple girl

cause we all need an anchor in a storm

 

you had a dream pull up at night

long and sleek like fin tail lights

calling you to go to always go

I just said do what you need

you'll be nothing if you recede

I can't live with a shadow I don't know

 

and you say that heroes come from quiet places

and the moon there in Vancouver's a heartbeat away

a heartbeat away

 

sometimes when your gone too long

I hear your voice break on the phone

freedom isn't everything you need

the sky sometimes gets too wide

you need a place to come inside

you say you need to listen to me breath

 

and you say that heroes come from quiet places

and the moon there in Kentucky's a heartbeat away

a heartbeat away
