HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO

(... out where the lightning splits the sea...)

This song came from a soundtrack from Shrek 2. Dear Melvin has helped me search for this song!

I love this song becuz it really hits a nerve. When times are rough, you wish that someone will just... TA DAH DAH DAHHHHHH... and just... bloody hell... come and save your day.





<-- HERRREE WE COME TO SAVE THE DAYYYYY!!! gosh I love X-men!!!











I guess everyone need a hero.

To a damsel in distress, it could be a strong brave knight.

To a lonely king, it could be be a sweet young lass.

Or... you could be your own hero.

For me... my hero would be... A cute little dog (ok... maybe not LITTLE, cuz I'll love to have a husky).





<-- isn't he just so fiercely cute... in a macho way?!








Alright alright... I know I cannot have a husky in a HDB, then... then... at least a pomeranian.


<-- awww... it's cute too, right?









I think I shall call my dog... ... ... Mackie.

After hard day's work, a cute affectionate Mackie will be greeting me at the door.... he will be excited... and happy... and just yearning for me to give him some attention.

When I wake up in the morning, I can hug & kiss Mackie goodbye... knowing that he'll be waiting for me to come home to him.

Everytime I look at Mackie, I will appreciate his presence (yes, my dog will be male) and I will smile in my heart... knowing that my dog will love me & never betray me.

Animals are innocent and straight-forward. When they're angry, they show it. When they get excited or happy, you'll know it. And when they love you, they will never leave you... they will not change... ... they will be constant. And you will feel safe with them... you don't have to worry... ...

... the ONLY TIME they are going to make you sad, is when they leave the world before you.

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
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 and 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
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 and the chill and the rain
And the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach
Like the fire in my blood
