Lyrics: Klaus Meine

Heroes don't cry
Heroes don't cry

Standing here in front of you
A wave of joy and sadness fills the room
Your soul has crashed into a wall
Your world just broke to pieces after all

The days of your life
Leave the world standing outside
But you find the strength for a smile
Because heroes like you wouldn't cry

Heroes don't cry
Heroes don't cry

The judge decided it's your right
To wake up from the dream of your life
The curtain is about to fall
No need for words, your eyes just say it all

The days of your life
Leave the world standing outside
You find the strength for a smile
Because heroes like you wouldn't cry

Heroes don't cry

There are days of your life
Leave the world standing outside
You find the strength for a smile
Because heroes like you wouldn't cry

Heroes don't cry

I can't forget that afternoon

So many times I've been thinking of you
I'm happy that you've decided to live
And what touches me most is what you said
Heaven can wait, can wait, can wait...
