To ride the storm, to an empire of the cloudsTo ride the storm, they climbedaboard their silver ghostTo ride the storm, to a kingdom that will comeTo ride the storm and damn the rest... oblivionRoyalty and dignitaries, brandy and cigarsGrey lady giant of the skies,You hold them in your armsThe millionth chance they laughed,to take down his majesty's craft"To india" they say, "magic carpet float away",an october fateful day...Mist is in the trees,Stone sweats with the dewThe morning sunrise, red before the blueHanging at the mast,Waiting for commandHis majesty's airship,The r101She's the biggest vessel built by man,A giant of the skiesFor all you unbelievers,The titanic fits insideDrum roll tight her canvas skin,Silvered in the sunNever tested with the fury,With the beating yet to comeThe fury yet to comeIn the gathering gloom,A storm rising in the westThe coxswain staredInto the plunging weather glassWe must go now,We must take our chance with fateWe must go now,For a politician, he can't be lateThe airship crew awake for thirtyHours at full stretchBut the ship is in their backbone,Every sinew, every inchShe never flew at full speed,A trial never doneHer fragile outer coverHer achilles would becomeAn Achilles yet to comeSailors of the sky, a hardened breedLoyal to the king,And an airship creedThe engines drum,The telegraph soundsRelease the cordsThat bind us to the groundSaid the coxswain "Sir, she's heavy""She'll never make this flight"Said the captain "Damn the cargo""We'll be on our way tonight"Groundlings cheered in wonder,As she backed off from the mastBaptising them her waterFrom the ballast fore and aftNow she slips into our pastFeeling the wind as it rolls youFeeling the diesels that push you alongWatching the Channel below youLower and lower, into the nightLights are passing below youNorthern france, asleep in their bedsStorm is raging around youA million to one, that's what he saidReaper standing beside herWith his scythe cuts to the bonePanic to make a decisionExperienced men asleep in their gravesHer cover is ripped and she's drowningRain is flooding into the hullBleeding to death and she's fallingLifting gas is draining away"We're down lads" came the cryBow plunging from the skyThree thousand horses silentAs the ship began to dieThe flares to guide her pathIgnited at the lastThe Empire of the Clouds,Just ashes in our pastJust ashes at the lastHere lie their dreamsAs I stand in the sunOn the ground where they builtAnd the engines did runTo the moon and the stars,Now what have we doneOh the dreamers may dieBut the dreams live onDream lives on - dream lives on...Now a shadow on a hill,The angel of the eastThe Empire of the CloudsMay rest in peaceAnd in a country churchyard,Laid head to the mastEight and forty soulsWho came to die in France
