Lyrics

In the middle of the night my hero comes to rescue.
He's so fine, I'm gonna make him mine.
He's sincere, I know his heart is beating
just for me, only for me.

But at the break of dawn he is gone.
The wind has carried him away.
And like a comet on the sky
he will return someday.

You are my hero, I love you,
and all I want to know is if you love me too.
You are my hero, I like you.
Oh won't you take me away and make my dreams come true?

A-la-de-da-da
You are my hero.
A-la-de-da-da
Ohhhh..
A-la-de-da-da
You are my hero.
A-la-de-da-da
Ohhhh..
A-la-de-da-da
You are my hero.
A-la-de-da-da
