The singer is longing for a heroic figure to come into his life. He is questioning where the good men have gone and the gods, and he is hoping for a white knight to appear, who is brave and strong enough to fight the odds. He dreams of a hero who is larger than life, someone who can rescue him from his wildest fantasies. He is waiting for this hero to come until the morning light, and he needs someone who is sure and fast. He is holding out for a hero until the end of the night.
