“Heroes” (Live at BBC Radio Theatre, London, 27th June, 2000)

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 can beat them just for one day
We can be Heroes, for ever and ever

I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like the dolphins can swim
Though nothing will keep us together
We can beat them, for ever and ever
We could be Heroes, just for one day
What d'you say?

I say...

I, I could be king
And you, you could be my queen
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be Heroes, just for one day
We can be us, for ever and ever

And I, I can remember (I remember)
Standing, standing by the wall (by the wall)
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
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
What d'you say?

I say...

We can be Heroes
We can be Heroes

I say...
We can be Heroes
Yeah
We can be Heroes

We can be Heroes
Just for one day

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh

Hey now

Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh
Just for one day
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh
Just for one day
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh
Just for one day
