Lyrics

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 forever 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, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh Just for one day, oh, just for one day
