Holding Out for a Hero

Where have all the good men gone
And where are all the gods?
Where's the street-wise 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

(Hit it!)

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 end of the night
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Dududu-duuu
Dududu-duuu
Dududu-duuu
Duuu-duuu

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 'til the end of the night
He's gotta 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 end of the night
He's gotta be sure and he'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
And 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

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!
