Everybody needs a hero, someone who always knows the way
Just when you're sure you've really gone astray,
He always saves the day
And today is just another one of those days when I wish I had me one of those heroes
It's what everybody needs
Everybody needs a good friend,
And in your life when one is found,
You know you knew just where you stood when,
Your good friend was around,
No one could put you down.
And today is just another one of those days when I wish I had me one of those good friends
It's what everybody needs,
True romance, so there will be a chance to plant seeds
So there'll be someone behind who'll be there to remind ‘em of their deeds
And no one knows why everybody needs,
But everyone needs, and I need, everybody needs
Everybody needs a lover.
Someone to spend the night so dear
And mornings when you want to hide your head beneath the covers
If you have your lover near,
You never know that fear
And today is just another one of those days when I wish I had me one of those
Today is just another one of those days when I wish I had me one of those
Today is just another one of those days when I wish I had me one of those Heroes!
