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 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

Up where the mountins 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 a fire in my blook
