Can I say the summer heat got to me when I was writing this? It doesn’t even sound like English . . . 

No, no, no, that’s not the one

Courage is just all the time gone

It’s right up over here and then away it runs

‘Cause the fear and the cowardice is just too much

 

No, no, no, there’s nothing to hide from

The world’s not gonna end just ‘cause you’re not my stem of love

No, no, no, as far as I can see

You’re fine unless you’ll be a hero for me

 

You want someone unpredictable

And in the way’ll catch you when you fall

‘Cause it’s not too far off what I’m asking for

I’m looking for a hero

 

Someone for whom nothing’s impossible

Nothing to stop you on your roll

It’s only what I’m asking for

I’m just looking for a hero

I’m just looking for a hero

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s all about the talk

You say you’ve got the skills, you’re gonna give it your all

Well now’s about the time you gotta walk the walk

Show me what you got before I shrug you off

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, you got it going on

Someone tell me when you’re gonna put it before I’m gone

Yeah, yeah, yeah, there’s nothing to see

Unless you’ll be a hero for me

 

You want someone unpredictable

And in the way’ll catch you when you fall

‘Cause it’s not too far off what I’m asking for

I’m looking for a hero

 

Someone for whom nothing’s impossible

Nothing to stop you on your roll

It’s only what I’m asking for

I’m just looking for a hero

I’m just looking for a hero

 

No, no, no, tell me if you can see

Any reason I shouldn’t be rescued and free

Yeah, yeah, yeah, that’s just the it be

Take on the world and be hero for me

 

You want someone unpredictable

And in the way’ll catch you when you fall

‘Cause it’s not too far off what I’m asking for

I’m looking for a hero

 

Someone for whom nothing’s impossible

Nothing to stop you on your roll

It’s only what I’m asking for

I’m just looking for a hero

 

Someone’s whose love is unconditional

Who’ll treat better than all the precious stones

It might just be a bit too much to ask for

I’m looking for a hero
