Your soft green eyes, never told me any lies
But your lips have turned me 'round a time or two
Tried to prove that you were wrong

But you told me all along that you weren't lookin' for a hero
You've done your time with figures made of stone

I let you run wild, I see you smile, it's all I need
I let you run wild, know that's your style, it's all I need

Your hometown, everybody let you down
They could never understand a girl like you
But you kept them all in shock, couldn't fit you in their box

You weren't lookin' for a hero
You've done your time with castles made of sand

I let you run wild, I see you smile, it's all I need
I let you run wild, know that's your style, it's somethin' to see
It's clear to me
That you weren't lookin' for a hero when you found me

That you weren't lookin' for a hero
It ain't what you need, baby
You weren't lookin' for no hero
It ain't what you needed
You weren't lookin' for a hero when you found me
