[Verse 1]
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

[Pre-Drop]
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
Holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta bе fast
And he's gotta be larger than lifе
Gotta be larger than life

[Drop]
I need a hero
Hero
I need a hero
Holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He′s gotta be sure
And it's gotta be soon
Gotta be larger than life
[Verse 2]
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

[Pre-Drop]
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 larger than life
Gotta be larger than life

[Drop]
I need a hero
Hero
I need a hero
Holding out for a hero 'til the morning light
He's gotta be strong, and he's gotta be fast
And he's gotta be larger than life
