lyrics
Don’t know where you are now
Don’t know how far you’re willing to go
But I heard you passed out one night
And woke up in Ohio.
Steaming windows in the back of the car
Stealing pennies from the money jar
You’ve been setting off fireworks
With the butt of your smoke.
If Harrison Ford had been on board
On the day you threw your keys out the window.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
Or would you still be flying?
Don’t know how to dial the volume back
Radio pumping out your favourite track
You loved me like a bass line
Till the hits got you distracted.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
If Harrison Ford had been onboard
Would you have thrown your keys out the window?
Or would you still be flying?
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
To save you from yourself.
If Harrison Ford had been on board
On the day you threw your keys out the window.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
Or would you still be flying?
If Harrison Ford had evened the score
Would you have kept your parachute handy?
If Harrison Ford had been on board
Would you still be flying? Wooooah-oah!
Don’t know how far you’re willing to go
But I heard you passed out one night
And woke up in Ohio.
Steaming windows in the back of the car
Stealing pennies from the money jar
You’ve been setting off fireworks
With the butt of your smoke.
If Harrison Ford had been on board
On the day you threw your keys out the window.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
Or would you still be flying?
Don’t know how to dial the volume back
Radio pumping out your favourite track
You loved me like a bass line
Till the hits got you distracted.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
If Harrison Ford had been onboard
Would you have thrown your keys out the window?
Or would you still be flying?
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
I think it’s gonna take MORE THAN A HERO
To save you from yourself.
If Harrison Ford had been on board
On the day you threw your keys out the window.
And if Johnny Cash had hid your stash
Would you have needed to make that crash landing?
Or would you still be flying?
If Harrison Ford had evened the score
Would you have kept your parachute handy?
If Harrison Ford had been on board
Would you still be flying? Wooooah-oah!
