Heroes
Embracing Love's Defiance: A Heroic Tale
Lyrics
I, I will be king
I aspire to be a king
cnd you, you will be queen
You, as my partner, will be the queen
Though nothing will drive them away
Despite challenges, nothing will drive us apart
We can beat them, just for one day
We can overcome adversaries, even if just for a day
We can be heroes, just for one day
We can be heroes, even if only for a day
cnd you, you can be mean
You have the capacity to be unkind
cnd I, I'll drink all the time
I may indulge in drinking frequently
'Cause we're lovers, and that is a fact
Our relationship is based on love, a factual reality
Yes we're lovers, and that is that
Confirming that we are indeed lovers
Though nothing will keep us together
No external force can keep us apart
We could steal time just for one day
We can steal time for ourselves, if only for a day
We can be heroes for ever and ever
We can be heroes indefinitely
What d'you say?
Asking for agreement or approval
I, I wish you could swim
Expressing a desire for your ability to swim
Like the dolphins, like dolphins can swim
Comparing the desired swimming ability to dolphins
Though nothing, nothing will keep us together
Despite challenges, nothing will keep us apart
We can beat them, for ever and ever
We can defeat our adversaries indefinitely
Oh we can be Heroes, just for one day
Reiteration that we can be heroes, if only for a day
I, I will be king
Reiteration of the aspiration to be a king
cnd you, you will be queen
Reiteration of the partner being the queen
Though nothing will drive them away
Despite challenges, nothing will drive us apart
We can be Heroes, just for one day
Emphasizing that we can be heroes, if only for a day
We can be us, just for one day
Emphasizing that we can be ourselves, if only for a day
I, I can remember (I remember)
Recollection of a past memory
Standing, by the wall (by the wall)
Describing a specific moment near a wall
cnd the guns, shot above our heads (over our heads)
Recalling the sound of gunfire over their heads
cnd we kissed, as though nothing could fall (nothing could fall)
Describing a kiss with a feeling of invincibility
cnd the shame, was on the other side
Referring to shame being on the other side
Oh we can beat them, for ever and ever
We can overcome our adversaries indefinitely
Then we could be Heroes, just for one day
Reiteration that we could be heroes, if only for a day
We can be Heroes
Repeating the statement that we can be heroes
We can be Heroes
-We can be Heroes
-Just for one day
Reiterating the possibility of being heroes, if only for a day
We can be Heroes
Reiteration of the statement that we can be heroes
We're nothing, and nothing will help us
Acknowledging a sense of insignificance
Maybe we're lying, then you better not stay
Admitting the possibility of deception and suggesting leaving if true
But we could be safer, just for one day
Suggesting the idea of temporary safety, if only for a day
Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-ohh, just for one day
Repeating the idea of temporary unity, if only for a day
