Where have all the good men gone? And where are all the gods? Where's the streets, white shirts, police? The fight's a-risin' on Isn't there a white knight upon the fiery sea? Late at night I toss and I turn And I dream of what I see I need a hero I'm holdin' 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 holdin' out for a hero Till 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 There's someone reaching back for me Rising 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 holdin' 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 holdin' out for a hero Till 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 holdin' out for a hero Till the end of the night drum solo Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I can 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 the blood Like a fire in the blood Like a fire in the blood Like a fire in the blood Like a fire in the blood I need a hero I'm holdin' 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 holdin' out for a hero Till 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 holdin' 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 holdin' out for a hero Until 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 holdin' out for a hero Till the end of the night Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-u Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh Uh, uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh Uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh-uh
