Heroes For A Day

Marbles rolling, jump ropes flying

we were soaring into the air

Free and flowing, glowing wildly

I remember you and me

Oh, my darling,

In the dark the moon shines oh so brightly

We could go painting rainbows, in the darkest hours

Or go shaping clouds like whole worlds made of clay

Gently aiming for the stars to be ours

Shall we go and paint ourselves a ticker-tape parade

There against the clear blue sky

The storms are rolling in and by and by

Dabbling closer to the edge we hope the fall

will be what makes us fly

Hey, my darling,

In the dark the moon shines ever so brightly

Oh let's go painting rainbows, in the darkest hours

or go shaping clouds like whole worlds made of clay

Gently aiming for the stars to be ours

Shall we go and paint ourselves a ticker-tape parade

And be heroes for a day, heroes for a day

Cast your eyes to the sun, we have already won

Wearing bright yellow capes we are off and away

Come look up there we go, go, go, go

Go painting rainbows, in the darkest hours

Or go shaping clouds like whole worlds made of clay

Gently aiming for the stars to be ours

Let's go celebrate our own ticker-tape parade

And be heroes for a day

Heroes for a day
