Dambusters

Long before the twilight, the planes are standing by
Ground crew gather in the dusk, low voices asking why
No one knows the target, the mission has begun
Flying into history to drop the bouncing bomb

Start the mighty engines, roaring into life
Turning to the airfield into the fading light
Gun the Merlin engines up to take off speed
The Lancaster is lifting, they pray they will succeed

Dambusters, squadron of the brave
Dambusters, the sacrifice you made
The sacrifice you made

Flying low across the night, the British bombers flew
On the deadly secret raid, hoping no one knew
Target looms, the planes attack into the mouth of Hell
Hold her steady, release the bomb, only time will tell

Dambusters, squadron of the brave
Dambusters, the sacrifice you made

Dambusters, squadron of the brave
Dambusters, the sacrifice you made
