Where have all the good men gone And where are 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 turn And dream of what I need
I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero til the end of the night He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast, and he's got to be fresh from the fight, I need a hero, I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light, hes got to be sure, and it gotta be soon, and he's to to be 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 Isn't there a Superman To sweep me off my feet?
I need a hero I'm holding out for a hero til the end of the night He's gotta be strong, he's gotta be fast, and he's gotta be fresh from the fight. I need a hero Im holding out for a hero til the morning light hes gotta be sure, and its gotta be soon and hes got to be larger than life
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I could swear that there's someone somewhere Watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain And the storm and the raging flood Oh, his approach is like a fire in my blood
I'll meet a hero And then we'll dance til the morning light Dreaming, he will lead me Held tight, tonight's the night
