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 I turn, and I dream of what I need 
[Chorus] 
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 and rising with the heat 
It's gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet 
[Chorus] 
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 
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 a fire in my blood 
(Like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood, like a fire in my blood) 
[Chorus] 
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 
I need a hero 
I'm holding out for a hero 'til the end of the night
