Jennifer Saunders - Holding Out For A Hero Lyrics

Where have all good men gone
And where are all the gods?
WhereÂÂÂÂÂ's the street-wise Hercules
To fight the rising odds?

IsnÂÂÂÂÂ't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need

(techno)
(ohhhh, Ohhh)
I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be strong
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fast
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light
(till the morning light)
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be sure
And itÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be soon
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be larger than life

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasy
Somewhere just beyond my reach
ThereÂÂÂÂÂ's someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
ItÂÂÂÂÂ's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet
(intermedial)
Up Where the mountains meet the heavens above
Out where the lightning splits the sea
I would swear that thereÂÂÂÂÂ'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 a fire in my blood
(like a fire in my blood 2 t.)
(intermedial)
(hero)

I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be strong
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fast
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be sure
And itÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be soon
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be larger than life

I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the end of the night
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be strong
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fast
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
IÂÂÂÂÂ'm holding out for a hero ‘til the morning light
HeÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be sure
And itÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be soon
And heÂÂÂÂÂ's gotta be larger than life
