    Story Behind the Song
    For the heroes of Sept 11 2001.

    THERE STILL ARE HEROES‚ was written in
    the firm belief that there will always be a select
    few people who will step up to be counted. On
    September 11, 2001 we learned of hundreds of these
    people in the form of the New York City Fire
    Department, the NYPD and Port Authority Police.
    This song is dedicated to their memory, and to the
    courage of thousands of other people whose stories
    we‚ll never know.

    Sandy Lemm of Toronto was moved to write the lyrics shortly after witnessing
    the horrors of Sept. 11 in New York. Frank Kitching etched the original melody
    and was flexible enought to allow Marco Girgenti the freedom of rewriting as much of the melody as he saw fit. The trio was capped off by multi award winner producer/engineer Jim Morgan.

    Although we are all industry professionals, none of us felt right taking money for our efforts in putting this piece together, we all gave our time freely and willingly. We hope it will bring some comfort to our American friends. Yes, it was a horrific tragedy..BUT..There Still Are Heroes.

    Arranged and co-written by Marco Girgenti in Toronto, Canada.

    Lyrics
    THERE STILL ARE HEROES

    Sometimes I try to do things better
    I try to do the best I can;
    Some days that doesn‚t matter
    I‚m just trying to understand
    That everything‚s gone crazy
    When I stop to think it through
    I‚m humbled by the things I saw
    Thank God I always knew...

    (CHORUS)
    There still are heroes
    Who give and never, ever take
    There still are heroes
    It‚s a thing no one can fake
    There still are heroes
    In your heart you know it‚s true
    There still are heroes
    They lay down their lives for you

    I can‚t believe what happened
    I never thought it could
    If only I‚d been dreaming
    Oh wouldn‚t that be good;
    But the innocence is over
    Thinking otherwise is wrong
    The one good thing to come of it
    They‚re always standing strong

    (CHORUS)

    Running towards the problem
    While others run away
    Put fear on hold, charge straight ahead
    That‚s the only way;
    There is no school to learn it
    It‚s molded in their heart
    To give everything they‚ll ever have
    That‚s how they play their part

    (DOUBLE CHORUS))
