I said I would give you the moon and the stars A perfect lie ticking with time, you know it's what we are As long as we're burning, we exist Let's keep the world turning, just for kicks 'Cause we won't know how good it is, until it's gone We used to see heroes, you and I When we looked into each other's eyes And everything we were was everything right Such a simple kinda magic So I just don't understand it How things can change in so little time We used to see heroes, you and I When we looked into each other's eyes You said we're splitting the atom according to plan Exploding through the city tonight, we were full of it We were bursting at the seams Just two reckless libertines Do we ever live the dream, before it's gone? We used to see heroes, every time When we looked into each other's eyes Such a simple kinda magic So I just don't understand it How things can change in so little time We used to see heroes, you and I When we looked into each other's eyes In spite of everything you said, I'm breaking it off In spite of everything you said, I'm breaking it... I won't stop till it's over Took the bottle and tasted, then lost self-control Now we're disintegrating, we're shattering All we had, in a moment We used to see heroes, every time When we looked into each other's eyes We used to see heroes, you and I
