Holding Out For A Hero Lyrics - Singles - Emery

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 end rising with the heat 

Photos 

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 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 

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 end the chill and the rain 

And the storm and the flood 

I can feel his approach 

Like the fire in my blood
