Not All Heroes Wear Capes

He doesn't fight crime Or wear a cape He doesn't read minds Or levitate But every time my world needs saving He's my Superman Some folks don't believe in heroes 'Cause they haven't met my dad He loves his workshop And rock 'n roll He's got a hot rod And a heart of gold And you could say he's a man of few words But he talks a lot within And even though I'm a little taller I still look up to him He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see that My dad's a hero to me Rust ridden fenders And doors full of dings Somehow he can fix about anything I didn't think he knew how to cry 'Til our dog died that year He doesn't always say I love you But I can hear him loud and clear He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see That my dad's a hero to me He built me a house in the arms of a tree He taught me to drive and to fight and to dream When he looks in my eyes I hope he can see That my dad's a hero to me (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) My dad's a hero to me (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) (My dad's a hero) My dad's a hero to me --- Not All Heroes Wear Capes - Owl City
