Holding Out for a Hero

[00:18.77] Whither have the worthy gone, oh, where is fair Gawain?
[00:25.13] Where is gallant Galahad to take the bridle rein?
[00:32.46] Is there not a white knight upon a fiery steed?
[00:39.32] Late at night, I toss and turn and I dream of what I need
[00:45.15] I need a hero
[00:47.65] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the end of the night
[00:52.18] I pray he be hale, winged of heel
[00:55.67] And newly returned from the fight
[00:58.86] I need a hero
[01:01.37] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the morning light
[01:05.77] He must be assured, e'er true to his word
[01:09.52] With a wit that will thrill and excite
[01:12.21] Thrill and excite
[01:16.95]
[01:28.95] Erelong at the witching hour within my reverie
[01:35.34] Somewhere just beyond the veil, someone reacheth out for me
[01:42.78] Racing on a courser and clad in gleaming mail
[01:49.55] I shall answer none but he who bringeth me the grail
[01:56.09] Oh, I need a hero
[01:59.62] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the end of the night
[02:04.08] Could I but afford my very own sword
[02:07.83] I would not require his might
[02:10.78] I need a hero (hero)
[02:13.35] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the morning light
[02:17.83] By God was he blessed, e'er true to his quest
[02:21.37] A man of whom Chaucer will write
[02:25.27] Up where the dragons glide near Heaven above
[02:28.96] Out on a storm-tossed odyssey
[02:32.37] Verily doth a saintly champion ride toward me
[02:39.06] Through the wind, and the chill, and the rain
[02:42.95] The plague and the flood
[02:46.06] I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood
[02:55.42] I need a hero
[02:57.99] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the end of the night
[03:02.43] I pray he be hale, winged of heel
[03:05.95] And newly returned from the fight
[03:09.14] I need a hero
[03:11.68] I shall hold out for a hero 'til the morning light
[03:16.13] A knight, not a pawn, a true paragon
[03:19.82] With armor and eyes shining bright
[03:22.84] I need a hero
[03:26.60]
