Holding Out For A Hero lyrics

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.
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.
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 hoXding out for a hero til the end of the night.
