Take me to the roads where I used to drive   Away from small town schemes   Cobblestones on bumpy roads   To the life on silver screens   Memories from a life escaping   When the dark is closing in   After storms have passed I see at last   The magic can begin      There I see the guiding light   The star you're born to be   I realise your love has set me free      We could be heroes   We could be angels in the sky   From the rainbow's end to heavensent   We spread our wings and fly   We could be heroes   We could be lovers you and I   And when angels fall and curtains call   We climb the mountains high   We could be heroes      Take me to the streets where I used to walk   The dreams I sacrificed   Sticks and stones when angels talked   Whispering sweet advice   Every night I sleep without you   Every breath you take away   Becomes a foolish game a crying shame   Leading me astray      Then I see the guiding light   The star you're born to be   I realise your love has set me free      We could be heroes   We could be angels in the sky   From the rainbow's end to heavensent   We spread our wings and fly   We could be heroes   We could be lovers you and I   And when angels fall and curtains call   We climb the mountains high   We could be heroes      Na na na we could be heroes   Na na na we could be heroes   Na na na we could be heroes   Na na na na na na   We could be heroes
