Brave Soul

I remember a boy in his back yard

And all the games he used to play

Looking for armies to conquer

And dragons to slay

Fearlessly seeking adventure

Riding a make-believe steed

Swearing to all on his honor

To be all he can be, 'cause...

Chorus:

A brave soul fights the good fight

Defending his castle with all of his might

It's an age-old story of life, there are those

Depending on one brave soul

The day finally came when the soldier

Set out to take on the world

Armed with the heart of a warrior

With his flag unfurled

But real life was not like the back yard

Now enemies are hard to define

The difference between good and evil

Is a very fine line, but...

(Chorus)

Now I'm behind the wheel of my Chrysler

At the end of my daily war

I pull in the drive and I wonder

What's it all for

Then I see a boy in the back yard

I smile at the games that he plays

He's counting on me to defend him

When there are dragons to slay

And a brave soul does all he can

And that makes a hero from an everyday man

He holds it all in his hands

Now I finally know that I am

(Chorus)

I remember a boy in his back yard

And all the games he used to play
