I Need 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

Chorus
I need a hero
I`m holding out for a hero till 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 till 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

Verse 2
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

Chorus
I need a hero
I`m holding out for a hero till 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 till 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 till the end of the night...

Bridge
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

Chorus
I need a hero
I`m holding out for a hero till 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 till 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 till 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 till 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 till the end of the night
