Holding Out For A Hero

Holding Out For A Hero - The Inspirators

Where have all the good men gone

And where are the gods

Where's the streetwise 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 till 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 till the morning light

He's gotta be sure he's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life

I need a hero

I'm holding out for a hero till 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 till the morning light

He's gotta be sure he's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life

Where have all the good men gone

And where are the gods

Where's the streetwise 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 till 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 till the morning light

He's gotta be sure he's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life

I need a hero

I'm holding out for a hero till 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 till the morning light

He's gotta be sure he's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life

I pray the mountains meet the heavens above

Out where the lightning splits the sea

I can swear that there's someone somewhere

Watching me

Through the wind and then the chill and the rain

And the storm and the raging flood

Oh his approaches like a fire in my blood

I'll meet a hero
