I dreamt I was a queen in a crimson road A lion with a crown of dust and gold Someone shut you down and your blood went cold Baby can you wake up, baby can you wake up again So don't let go We can be so beautiful Listening to the sound of silence So let the walls come down And the colours light up the sky We could be heroes, we could be heroes, tonight And when the hearts break loose and our love is like a battle cry We could be heroes, we could be heroes, tonight I feel it like a surge running through my veins Just kiss me and revive this love again We could be dancing in the eye of a hurricane They can never break us, they can never break us no more So don't let go We can be so beautiful Listening to the sound of silence So let the walls come down And the colours light up the sky We could be heroes, we could be heroes, tonight And when the hearts break loose and our love is like a battle cry We could be heroes, we could be heroes, tonight Love is like a battle cry And we'll shine till our colours light up the sky And we'll dance to the sound of our battle cry We could be heroes We could be heroes We could be heroes Tonight, you and I
