(A5)Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

(A5)Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

day.

Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?

Where’s the street wise Her cu les to fight one the ing ris ing odds?

Is n’t there a white knight

up on a fier y steed?

it’s Late at night I toss and turn and dream of what I need.

I need a (A5)he ro.

I’m hold ing out for a he ro till the end of the night.

He’s got ta be strong and he’s got ta be fast and he’s got ta be fresh from the fight.

I need a he ro.

I’m hold ing out for a he ro till the morn ing light.

He’s got ta be sure and it’s got ta be soon and he’s got ta be larg er than life.

er than Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day.

Some where af ter mid night in my wild est fan ta sy,

some where just be yond my reach, there’s some one reach ing back for me.

Rac ing on the thun der,

up ris ing with the heat,

it’s gon na take a su per man to sweep me off my feet.

I need a (A5)he ro.

I’m hold ing out for a he ro till the end of the night.

He’s got ta be strong and he’s got ta be fast and he’s got ta be fresh from the fight.

I need a he ro.

I’m hold ing out for a he ro till the morn ing light.

He’s got ta be sure and it’s got ta be soon and he’s got ta be larg er than Larg er than life.

doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day.

life.

Up where the moun tains meet the heav ens a bove,

out where the light ning splits the sea,

I would swear that there’s some one some where watch ing me.

Through the wind and the chill and the rain

and the storm and the flood,

I can feel his ap proach like fi re in my blood.

(A5)Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

(A5)Doo doom da da doom da da doom ka day (yeah).

day.

I need a life.
