1066 lyrics

An army left the shallow waters Fjords and mountain ridge A massive fleet Three hundred ships We're off to stamford bridge It's the last time we embark on a quest And we'll never sail again In the memory of our fathers Who gave their lives away In the favour of our brothers I will pray We were soldiers meant to be We were rulers of the sea Travelled east and west and south We owned the north Let the dragon steer our ships We deny the crucifix At the battle in ten six six King harald led his waiting army Took them by surprise A single axeman held them off Until they closed his eyes It's the last time we embark on a quest And we'll never sail again In the memory of our fathers Who gave their lives away In the favour of our brothers I will pray We were soldiers meant to be We were rulers of the sea Travelled east and west and south We owned the north Let the dragon steer our ships We deny the crucifix At the battle in ten six six It's the end of an age And an end of an era It's our time to go down in history We were soldiers meant to be We were rulers of the sea Travelled east and west and south We owned the north Let the dragon steer our ships We deny the crucifix At the battle in ten six six
