Dragon On The Sea |
«It is the 16th century. |
I am Queen Elizabeth sending out the brave Sir Francis |
Drake to defend the English realm against the invading armada.» |
Times are dark now, our empire’s gone astray |
Forces from down south, armada on the way |
So we call our greatest men to run the barricade |
Shine your light where shadows fall and wash the night away |
Sail on for your queen |
Sail into history |
You will never be the same |
Sail on for country |
Into our memory |
Time will remember your name |
Dragon on the sea |
Fires burn now in once our tranquil bays |
Tall ships that rain down thunderbolts and flames |
Go and raise your pirate flag, cast the lines away |
Take your fleet where darkness falls and turn the night to day |
The sun never sets on the empire won |
But wise men say never say never |
It slips through our hands just like sand in sun |
We thought it would go on forever |
Dragon ships they keep on sailing, on to Nova Albion |
While the waking world is sleeping, dragon ships are sailing on |
