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 |
