I, I would be king
And you, you would be my queen

Though nothing would keep us together
But we could beat them forever and ever
We could be heroes just for one day

You, you can be mean
And I, I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that is the fact
Yes, we're lovers, and that is that

Though nothing will keep us together
Oh we may beat them just for one day
We can be heroes just for one day

Oh I, well, I wish I could swim
Like the dolphins, like the dolphins can swim

Though nothing will drive them away
Oh we could beat them just for one day
We can be heroes forever and ever
What d'you say?

And I, I would be king
And you'd be my queen
Though nothing can keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
We can be heroes just for one day

Oh 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 fell on the other side
We can beat them forever and ever
Then we can be heroes just for one day
What d'you say?

We can be heroes
Just for one day
We can be heroes

Though nothing will keep us together
But maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
Bu we can be heroes just for one day

We can be heroes
Just for one day
Just for one day
