Where have all
the good men gone
and where are
all the gods?
Where's the
streetwise Hercules
who fights and
rides in arms?
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 a fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero
'til the morning light
He's gotta be sure
and he'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
is 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 a fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero
'til the morning light
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
Up where the lightning
strikes the sea
I could swear
there is someone
somewhere watching me
Through the wind
and the chill and the rain
And the storm in the night
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 a fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero
'til the morning light
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
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 morning light
He's gotta be sure
and he's gotta be soon
and he's gotta be
larger than life
