In summer '40 shadows filled the sky
The Luftwaffe came and Britain stood by
With Spitfires soaring young pilots took flight
Defending their homeland through day and through night
The Battle of Britain fought in the air
With courage unyielding they held steady there
For freedom and country they rose to defend
Through smoke and fire they'd fight till the end
Dogfights at dawn skies blazing with light
Outnumbered but fearless they fought the good fight
Over fields and cities they soared and they fell
Each brave heart a story a tale we will tell
The Battle of Britain fought in the air
With courage unyielding they held steady there
For freedom and country they rose to defend
Through smoke and fire they'd fight till the end
So remember their bravery high in the blue
The Battle of Britain their spirit shines through
A legacy lasting a victory won
In the skies of their homeland they flew like the sun
