'Heroes' 

by David Bowie

I, I ____ _____ ______ _____

Like the __________, like dolphins can swim

Though nothing,

_______ _____ ______ ____ _________

We can beat them, for ever and ever

Oh ___ ____ ___ _______, 

just for one day

I, __ ____ ___ ______

And you, you will be queen

Though nothing will drive them away

___ ____ ___ _______, just for one day

We can be us, just for one day

I, I can remember (I remember)

Standing, by the wall (by the wall)

And the guns shot above our heads

(over our heads)

And we kissed, 

as though nothing could fall

(nothing could fall)

And the shame was on the other side

Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever

Then we could be heroes, 

just for one day

We can be heroes

We can be heroes

We can be heroes

Just for one day

We can be heroes
