Holding Out for a Hero |
| Where have all the good men gone |
| And where are all the gods? |
| Where's the streetwise Hercules |
| To fight the rising odds? |
| Isn't there a white knight |
| Upon a fiery steed? |
| Late at night I toss and I turn |
| And I dream of what I need |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night |
| He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast |
| And gotta be fresh from the fight |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light |
| He's gotta be sure |
| And it's gotta be soon |
| And he's gotta be larger than life |
| Larger than life |
| Somewhere after midnight |
| In my wildest fantasies |
| Somewhere just beyond my reach |
| There's someone reaching back for me |
| Racing on the thunder |
| And rising with the heat |
| It's gonna take a Superman |
| To sweep me off my feet |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night |
| He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast |
| And gotta be fresh from the fight |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light |
| He's gotta be sure |
| And it's gotta be soon |
| And he's gotta be larger than life |
| Larger than life |
| Up where the mountains neath the heavens above |
| Out where the lightning strikes the sea |
| I can swear that there's someone |
| Somewhere watching me |
| Through the wind and the chill and the rain |
| And the storm and the flood |
| I can feel his approach |
| Like a fire in my blood |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night |
| He's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast |
| And gotta be fresh from the fight |
| I need a hero |
| I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light |
| He's gotta be sure |
| And it's gotta be soon |
| And he's gotta be larger than life |
| Larger than life |
