Dambusters

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Chorus] Dambusters Squadron of the brave Dambusters The sacrifice you made [Post-Chorus] The sacrifice you made [Verse 3] 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 [Chorus] Dambusters Squadron of the brave Dambusters The sacrifice you made Dambusters Squadron of the brave Dambusters The sacrifice you made
