Holding Out For A Hero (From The Movie Shrek)

Holdin` Out For A Hero - The Party Heroes

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 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 he's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger

Than life larger than life

Somewhere after midnight

In my wildest fantasies

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

I need a hero

I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end

Of the night

He's gotta be strong 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 he'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 will swear

That there's someone somewhere watching me

Through the wind and the chill and the rain

And the storm and the raging flood

His approach is 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 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

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
