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
