Heroes Lyrics

Heroes lyrics

[Originally performed by David Bowie]



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

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

Standing

By the wall

And the guns

Shot above our heads

And we kissed

As though nothing could fall

And the shame

Was on the other side

Oh we can beat them

For ever and ever

Then we can 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
