The Crimson Tide

The Crimson Tide

Warrior
He learned to fight and to survive
Now he must stir the nation's pride
Fearing the crimson tide
We shall go on, onto the end fight on the seas
And on the oceans, in the air
Fearing the crimson tide

Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror
Victory how ever long and hard the road may be
For without victory there is no survival

He has nothing to offer but blood toil tears and sweat

Sixth of June, a Tuesday in 1944, allied invasion, overlord
Fearing the crimson tide
a million men, ready to land in Normandy, will it be victory or defeat
fearing the crimson tide

We will never surrender, we will never give in
we will fight on the beaches, we will fight in the fields
we will never surrender, we will never give in
we will fight on the streets and fight til the bitter end

The shadow of Gallipoli stretches long and turns him cold
The memory, the tragedy, blood red foam on blood red sea
Thousands of brave young men needlessly sacrificed
Dead on a blood soaked beach, here is the crimson tide

We will never surrender
we will never give in
we will fight on the beaches,
we will fight in the fields

We will never surrender
we will never give in
we will fight on the streets and fight til the bitter end

We will never surrender, we will never give in
We will never surrender
