Regex help

Hello, i am regex newbie. I want to extract text between 2 markers. I want all the text that happens to be between <h2> and </h2>.

So far I got this:
<h2>.*</h2>

for this sample input:
<h2>hello</h2>
<h2>goodbye</h2>
<h2>wait</h2>

However, the regex also returns the markers, while I only want hello, goodbye, wait.

I know I can Substring it, but I want to do it with regex alone.

Thanks.
