Heroes Lyrics

I, I will be king

 And you, you will be queen

 Though nothing will drive them away

 We can beat them, just for one day

 We can be Heroes, just for one day

 

 And you, you can be mean

 And I, I'll drink all the time

 'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact

 Yes we're lovers, and that is that

 

 Though nothing, will keep us together

 We could steal time, 

 just for one day

 We can be Heroes, for ever and ever

 What d'you say?

 

 I, I wish you could swim

 Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim

 Though nothing,

 nothing will keep us together

 We can beat them, for ever and ever

 Oh we can be Heroes, 

 just for one day

 

 I, I will be king

 And you, you will be queen

 Though nothing will drive them away

 We can be Heroes, just for one day

 We can be us, just for one day

 

 I, I can remember (I remember)

 Standing, by the wall (by the wall)

 And the guns shot above our heads

 (over our heads)

 And we kissed, 

 as though nothing could fall

 (nothing could fall)

 And the shame was on the other side

 Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever

 Then we could be Heroes, 

 just for one day

 

 We can be Heroes

 We can be Heroes

 We can be Heroes

 Just for one day

 We can be Heroes

 

 We're nothing, and nothing will help us

 Maybe we're lying, 

 then you better not stay

 But we could be safer, 

 just for one day

 

 Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, 

 just for one day
