Lyrics of "Heroes" - Live by David Bowie

intro

We've had a lovely lovely evening

verse

But, you could be mean
I'll drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers
That is a fact
Yes we're lovers
And that is that

chorus

Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can beat them
Just for one day
We can be heroes
Just for one day
What you'd say? I say...

verse

I, well I wish I could swim
Like dolphins
Like dolphins can swim
Though nothing
Will keep us together
We can beat them
For ever and ever
We can be heroes
Just for one day
What'd you say?

verse

And I, I will be king
And you, you would be my queen
Though nothing
Will drive them away
We can beat them
For ever and ever
We can be heroes
Just for one day

verse

I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing
And the guns
The guns shot above our heads (over our heads)
And we kissed
As though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
And the shame
It fell on the other side
We can beat them
For ever and ever
We can be heroes
Just for one day
What'd you say?

bridge

We can be heroes, I say...
We can be heroes, I say...
We can be heroes, what'd you say?
We can be heroes

verse

Oh we're nothing
And no-one will help us
Then maybe we're nothing
Then you'd better not stay
But we could be safer
Just for one day

outro

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, yeah yeah
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, we can be heroes
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, we can be heroes
Yeah, Oh-oh-oh-ohh
Just for one day
Writer(s): Brian Eno, David Bowie
