a solider in a uniform
a faded 8 by 10
a brave man who went off to war never came back home again
classified MIA
what happened to my grandad is still a mystery today

missing hero where did you go
though you're gone now
you live on now
through the ones you've touched and left behind
tonight im one of those
missing heroes

he sat tall in the saddle upon the silver screen
when i was just a boy he was man i couldnt wait to be
wish he was still around
we sure could use a few like him to look up to right now

missing hero where did you go
though you're gone now
you live on now
through the ones you've touched and left behind
tonight I'm one of those
missing heroes

have you made a difference today
if you leave here unexpectedly will you children say

missing hero where did you go
though you're gone now
you live on now
through the ones you've touched and left behind
tonight im one of those
missing heroes
