He wasn´t there when I needed him
No, he was never around
His reputation was preceiving him
And he was out on the town
It didn´t matter if he let me down

I didn´t care about the lies
All I knew was that he loved me very much
He was my hero in disguise

I´m so pleased I never gave up on him
And well you wouldn´t believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time
And I´m glad that I gave it to him ´cause now everything´s fine.

Now you see I never thought you´d be a constant person in my life
And I don´t think that you would be if you´d have stayed with your ex-wife
I know you waited but there is no need, no need to apologize
Because I know you always loved me very much.

You are my hero in disguise.

I´m so pleased I never gave up on him
And well you wouldn´t believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time
And I´m glad that I gave it to him ´cause now everything´s fine.

You might have thought you didn´t teach me much
But you taught me right from wrong
And it was when you didn´t keep in touch
Well it taught me to be strong
And just in case you ever thought I would
I wouldn´t change you for the world
Because I know you always loved me very much.
I´ll always be your little girl.

I´m so pleased I never gave up on him
And well you wouldn´t believe some of the things that he did
And everyone said you have to give him some time
And I´m glad that I gave it to him ´cause now everything´s fine.
