I, I wish I could swim Just like a dolphin, like dolphins can swim And nothing, is gonna keep us together And we can beat them, for ever and ever Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day
I, I will be king And you, you're gonna be my queen Yeah but nothing, is gonna drive us away Cos we can be Heroes, just for one day And we're gonna be ourselves, just for one day
I, I can remember (I remember) When I was standing, by the wall (by the wall) And then the guns, they shot over our heads (over our heads) And then we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall) Well then the shame, yeah, the shame was on their side But we're gonna 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
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?
