When I walk down the street
See the people who stop and stare and say
Haven`t I seen that face somewhere a long time ago
When I walk down the street
See the stranger who says
Why, Hi,
With a
How you going, Buddy,
When you walked on by I thought I`d say hallo
They say:
Haven`t I seen your face before
Weren`t you the boy that used to live next door
Weren`t you on television ev`ry night
Haven`t I seen you round
Take a look at me
I`m YESTERDAY`S HERO
YESTERDAY`S HERO
that`s all I be.
Take a look at me
I`m YESTERDAY`S HERO
And YESTERDAY`S HERO
is all that I`m gonna be
If I don`t get together
make a new start and be somebody better
AII that I`ll be if I don`t get together now.
VVhen you walk down the street
now
If you know me
then pass me by
If you wonder what I`m doing don`t ask me why
I don`t read the news.
When you walk down the street
If you`re sorry then don`t feel bad
If you followed my story
then just be glad
You ain`t in my shoes.
Because
Haven`t you seen my face before
Yes
I was the boy who used to live next door
Yes
I was on television ev`ry night
Haven`t you seen me round.
Take a look at me
I`m YESTERDAY`S HERO
YESTERDAY`S HERO . . .
