I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen

Though 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, oh, just for one day
We can be heroes, forever and ever

I, I can remember
Standing (standing) by the wall
And the guns shot above our heads
And we kissed as though nothing, nothing could fall

And the shame (and the shame) was on the other side (other side)
Oh, we can beat them forever and ever
And we could be heroes, just for one day

We could be heroes, we could be heroes
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
We could be
We could be heroes
We could be heroes
