I, I wish you could swim. Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together. We can beat them forever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes... just for one day
I, I will be King. And you, you will be Queen
For 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 guards shot above our heads (Over our heads)
And we kissed as though nothing would fall (Nothing could fall)
And the shame was on the other side. Oh we can beat them... forever 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

David Bowie - Heroes (Album version/12")
I, I will be King. And you, you will be Queen
For 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 forever and ever
Oh we can be Heroes... just for one day
I, I will be King. And you, you will be Queen
For 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 guards shot above our heads (Over our heads)
And we kissed as though nothing would fall (Nothing could fall)
And the shame was on the other side. Oh we can beat them forever 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
(Fades out)
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh,
just for one day
