"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
