Lyrics
[verse]
I grew up reading tales of shining knights
Flying through the storm to fix the night
Wanted powers, wanted wings to soar
Wanted to be something worth fighting for
[verse]
But the years went by and I found my own way
Not a hero built from some old fairy tale
Just a heart that's honest, just two open hands
No cape, no crown, but still I understand
[chorus]
I don't need a miracle to hold you
I don't need the stars to prove it's true
Just something real, something close, something ordinary
Just something just like this with you
No legend, no myth, just a heartbeat steady
Just something just like this with you
[verse]
You don't need a fortune, don't need a throne
Just a hand to hold when the wind gets thrown
We could build a life out of simple things
Out of quiet mornings and what tomorrow brings
[chorus]
I don't need a miracle to hold you
I don't need the stars to prove it's true
Just something real, something close, something ordinary
Just something just like this with you
No legend, no myth, just a heartbeat steady
Just something just like this with you
[bridge]
Where the streetlights fade to grey
We'll still be here, come what may
No superhuman story needed
Just this love, plain and steady
[chorus]
I don't need a miracle to hold you
I don't need the stars to prove it's true
Just something real, something close, something ordinary
Just something just like this with you
