I, I wish I could swim
Just like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
But nothing, nothing will keep us together
Yeah, we can beat them, forever and ever
'Cause we can be heroes, just for one day
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
And nothing can drive us away
We can be heroes, just for one day
And we can be us, oh, just for one day
And I, I can remember
Standing, by the wall
And the guns, 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, oh, forever and ever
Then we could be heroes, oh, just for one day
We, we can be heroes
We, we can be heroes
And we, we can be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes
