I, I will be Queen
And you, you will be King
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 new
And I, I'll drag you 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 steal time just for one day
We can be heroes forever and ever
What do you say
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes just for one day
I, I would be Queen
And you, you would be King
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be honest just for one day
I, I remember (I remember)
Standing by the wall (by the wall)
The guns shot above our heads (above 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 forever and ever
Then we can be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
Just for one day
And you, you will be King
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 new
And I, I'll drag you 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 steal time just for one day
We can be heroes forever and ever
What do you say
I, I wish you could swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
We can beat them forever and ever
Oh, we can be heroes just for one day
I, I would be Queen
And you, you would be King
Though nothing will drive them away
We can be heroes just for one day
We can be honest just for one day
I, I remember (I remember)
Standing by the wall (by the wall)
The guns shot above our heads (above 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 forever and ever
Then we can be heroes just for one day
We can be heroes
We can be heroes
We can be heroes just for one day
Just for one day
