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 fierce steed?
Later 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 ´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


(Chorus:)
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


(Chorus:)
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
