Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
But nothing will drive them away
We could be heroes
Just for one day
We can beat them
Just for one day
[Verse 2]
And you, you can be mean
I, I drink all the time
'Cause we're lovers, and that's a fact
Yeah, we're lovers, and that is that
[Verse 3]
Though nothing will keep us together
We could steal time, just for one day
We could be heroes, forever and ever
What d'you say?
[Verse 4]
I, I will be king
And you, you will be queen
Though nothing, will drive them away
We can be heroes
Just for one day
We can be us
Just for one day
[Verse 5]
I, I remember
Standin', by the wall
And the guns, shot above our heads
And we kissed, but nothing could fall
And the shame, was on the other side
We can beat them
Forever and ever
We can be heroes
Just for one day
[Verse 6]
We can be heroes
Just for one day
We could be heroes
Just for one day
Written by: Brian Eno, David Bowie, Tove Lo
