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
