Cover art for Holding Out for a Hero (Bonnie Tyler cover) lyrics by Frou Frou

it doesn't really mean she wants a hero. it's about how she's waiting for someone who's perfect for her, who's willing to get above and beyond just for her. (instead of just dating around, wasting time.)

she'd rather wait for someone who's her own hero.

that's how i see it.
