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 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 |
|
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 |
|
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 |
|
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 would 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 the 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 |
|
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 |
