| 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 |
