Holding Out For A Hero – Bonnie Tyler (“Simply Believe” Version)
By
Where have all the good men gone 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 I turn, I dream of what I need
I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night But he’s gotta be strong He’s gotta be fast Got to be fresh from the fight I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the morning light He’s gotta be sure Gotta be soon 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 Holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night But he’s gotta be strong He’s gotta be fast Got to be fresh from the fight I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the morning light Gotta be sure Gotta be soon Got to be larger than life Larger than life
Hero ’til the end of the night
Up where the mountains meet the heavens above Out where the lightning splits the sea I could swear that there’s 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 the fire in my blood
Like the fire in my blood Like the fire in my blood Like the fire in my blood
I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the end of the night But he’s gotta be strong He’s gotta be fast Got to be fresh from the fight I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the morning light He’s gotta be sure Gotta be larger than life Than life, life, life, life
Hero ’til the end of the night! Gotta be sure Gotta be larger than life I need a hero Holding out for a hero ’til the morning light! He’s gotta be sure Got to be larger than life!
