Artist/Band: Glee Cast
Lyrics for Song: Holding Out For A Hero
Lyrics for Album: Glee: The Music - Season 4 Vol. 1 [2012]



Where have all the good men gone

And where are all the gods?

Where's the street-wise Hercules

To fight the rising odds?

Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?

Late at night I toss and turn and dream

Of what I need



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



Somewhere after midnight

In my wildest fantasy

Somewhere just beyond my reach

There's someone reaching back for me

Racing on the thunder end rising with the heat

It's gonna take a superman to sweep me off my feet



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



Up where the mountains meet the heavens above

Out where the lightning splits the sea

I would swear that there's someone somewhere

Watching me



Through the wind end the chill and the rain

And the storm and the flood

I can feel his approach

Like the fire in my blood


About Holding Out For A Hero

"Holding Out For A Hero" by the Glee Cast serves as a pivotal moment in the television series, blending pop-rock sensibilities with the group's signature vocal harmonies. Originally a 1993 hit by the band Heart, the track was reimagined here to highlight the ensemble's ability to deliver powerful, emotive performances across diverse genres. Its inclusion in the fourth season soundtrack underscores the show's commitment to integrating classic rock anthems into its modern narrative, creating a bridge between nostalgic appeal and contemporary teen drama. The recording captures the collective energy of the cast, transforming a well-known melody into a communal expression of hope and resilience that resonates with audiences of all ages. This version remains a staple of the series' musical identity, celebrated for its catchy chorus and the seamless integration of the Glee Cast's signature style.
