Lyrics

In 1989
The family packed and headed east
When mother saw the land she cried
Was trading trees for tumbleweeds
But soon they loved those desert skies
And found a house to build their dreams
That's when i saw you on the trike
Took off and ran across the street
Dream of all that we could be
Oh we're the heroes
Tights and overalls
Bow and arrows
Save our moms from thieves
Oh we're the heroes
Hungry dinosaurs
Roam the garden
Munching on our greens
Now 1999
First trace of acne on our cheeks
When finally summertime arrives
Can trade the books for better things
Longer days forever nights
With new adventures up our sleeves
What new games will we devise
Which superstar you wanna be?
Once again we must unite
Yeah we're the heroes
In the driveway steal the ball
Hit the shot
The buzzer sounds they scream
Yeah we're the heroes
4th down you're going long
Touchdown past the sidewalk
Victory
Yeah we're the heroes
Wizards with the glove
Diving stops and punch outs from our knees
Yeah we're the heroes
Jackknifes and cannonballs
On this island on the river we are kings
By 2009
You'd met the woman of your dreams
And now the time begins to fly
With dogs and kids and wedding rings
I know I've got you by my side
Even a thousand miles away
Helping each other build our lives
There's not a better game to play
All our stars are shining bright
When suddenly you're hit
Nothing's making sense
This was never supposed to end
I just can't accept
Losing you my friend
We're supposed to ride again
Someday, somewhere
I don't know how yet
But I can feel you in the air
Every shot I hit
Keep my elbow in
I can hear you in my head
We were heroes
Why'd you have to fly away
I guess some angel needs you more than me
But we're the heroes
I'll meet you there someday
For now I'll keep you in my memories
When we were heroes
With lava on the floor
Jump from couch to cushions, never burnt our feet
When we were heroes
Pirates storm the shore
Raiding cupboards, hoarding snacks to eat
When we were heroes
Pinstripes and little league
Dads are coaches, brothers on the team
When we were heroes
Cops and robbers on patrol
With all the neighborhood kids in the street
