Silent Hero

He takes on too much
He's out to fix the world
In time
tick
He can
tock
Fix it all
But time slips away
While he slips under the sheets
To escape the many promises he has vowed to keep
He sleeps
Oh, he sleeps
While the world waits
Waits for he, who is great
To hammer and glue
To reep and to sew
To make the old look new
And water gardens to grow
His burdens and heart are heavy
But he is strong
Though we long for his help
We want him to be overjoyed
So we'll mend his heart
And he'll go on
And on
And on
