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 beat them-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-forever and ever Then we could be heroes-just for one day We can be heroes (3X) 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, just for one day
