(originally by David Bowie)
|
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
|
