Verse
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 hello
Pre-Chorus
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'll 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,
All that I'll be if I don't get together now.
Verse
When you walk down the street,
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
Pre-Chorus
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, that's all I'll 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,
All that I'll be if I don't get together now.
