HEROES

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

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

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


Originally by David Bowie from his album Heroes. Performed by Jon Bon Jovi on 29 Apr 2003 at Count Basie Theatre, Red Bank, NJ, during a benefit Hope Concert for Robert Bandiera Jr., son of the local band leader and guitarist Bobby Bandiera, who has neurological difficulties and will require full time care. I don't know whether Bruce shared vocals or not, but he might have played guitar during the song. I'm not sure.
