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!
Sail on for your queen!
Sail into history!
Time will remember your name -
Dragon on the sea!
The sun never sets on the Empire One
But wise men say never say never say never (say never)
It slips through our hands just like sand in sun
We thought it would go on forever forever forever (forever)
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!
Dragon ships they keep on sailing, on to Nova Albion
While the waking world is sleeping, dragon ships are sailing on
Dragon ships they keep on sailing, on to Nova Albion
While the waking world is sleeping, dragon ships are sailing on
Dragon ships they keep on sailing, on to Nova Albion
While the waking world is sleeping, dragon ships are sailing on
Dragon ships they keep on sailing, (on to Nova Albion...)
