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 'til the end of the night
 He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
 And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til 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 fantasy
 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, yeah
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
 He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
 And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
 He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon
 And he's gotta be larger than life
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
 Up where the mountains meet the heavens above
 Out where the lightning splits the sea
 I could swear there is 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
 (Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood
 Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood, blood)
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
 He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
 And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
 He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon
 And he's gotta be larger than life
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
 He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
 And he's gotta be fresh from the fight
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
 He's gotta be sure, and it's gotta be soon
 And he's gotta be larger than life
 I need a hero
 I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
