In the tower, there he stood Employed to watch the ships go by Not considered a great man Yet he served his role with pride
'Cross the bay he looked each evening Always quiet, always calm But tonight it would be different He would save them all from harm
It caught his eye, through the black- he saw it A careless light, a hidden ship - extinguished A closer look, the enemy - approaching A fleet of ships, moves toward - the Empire
Away he ran With his news In silence
Some of the guards, they tried to stop him "Let him approach" commanded the Empress
And she heard the urgent warning An invasion now discovered Calling out to all her armies They will not defeat the Empress
He never sounded the alarm So the invaders wouldn't hear Heard his plan and saw a chance To draw the enemy in near
Between the islands and the shore Is where they caught them unaware The enemy knew not the land And ran aground against the sand
The Enemy - caught by surprise - uncertain They can't escape, a twist of fate - defensive The island shores were stained with blood - The Empress From the shores, Empire unleashed - they slaughtered
"Strawberry" the islands named for the blood that day
He knew his fear was just a reaction Beside the Empress he fought with passion
He watches over the shore His eyes see it all The Empress she calls To him ever more....Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
