Pearl Harborv6

[Intro] (orchestral intro, sirens, rising drums) [Verse 1] Silence over Hawaii, a peaceful sleep, Only waves are pounding on the steel-clad deep. Arizona is dreaming, her guns are still, But dark wings are shining above the hill. A red sun is rising like a warning sign, And at 7:48 the world crosses the line. [Pre-Chorus] The radar is blind, no engines in the air, The gates are open to the enemy there! Steel birds are falling from the sky above, War has come — the iron hour has begun! [Chorus] Pearl Harbor! The water burns! Pearl Harbor! The star returns! We will not break, we will not run, But today the battle can't be won! Smoke on the bay, blood on the tide, Steel is blazing, fire cannot hide! We remember the day, we remember the hour, When the enemy struck with all his power! [Verse 2] Torpedoes in the water — a deadly trace, Oklahoma is listing, light leaves the place. Utah is sinking, Nevada's in flame, Sirens are wailing through the blood-red rain. Pilots in the sky — like shadows of doom, Shells are tearing through the steel and the gloom. [Pre-Chorus] Through smoke and fire, through the hellish roar, Sailors are rising to the battle once more! The guns are throwing a leaden wall, But it's too late — the enemy stands tall! [Chorus] Pearl Harbor! The water burns! Pearl Harbor! The star returns! We will not break, we will not run, But today the battle can't be won! Smoke on the bay, blood on the tide, Steel is blazing, fire cannot hide! We remember the day, we remember the hour, When the enemy struck with all his power! [Bridge] (slow, tragic, strings and piano) Two hours of hell that felt like years, Heroes were falling, but they held their tears. From ash and ruin a wall will rise, And freedom will answer to the skies! [Guitar Solo] (fast neoclassical solo, tremolo, twin guitars) [Final Chorus] (maximum power, choir, double-bass drums) PEARL HARBOR! WE WILL STRIKE BACK! PEARL HARBOR! THE ENEMY WILL CRACK! We'll raise the flag from ashes and tears, The day will come — we'll answer the years! For every fallen, for every ship, We'll carry this pain on every trip! Pearl Harbor — never forget! [Outro] (fading riff, sirens, bells) Remember Pearl Harbor... Infamy... Remember...
