Holding Out For A Hero

Frou Frou

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 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

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

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

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.



Up where the mountains meet the heavens above

Out where the lightning splits the sea

I could 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 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.

and 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.

and He's gotta be sure

and it's gotta be soon

And he's gotta be larger than life.

(larger than life)
