SABATON
"Aces In Exile"

In the skies above the isle
Aces In Exile prevail!

From near and far they arrived join the force
Ready to serve the Allies command
Sent in the training, though they already earned their wings
They were ready to fly they were fit for the fight
Once in the air the battle began
They've proven their worth now they fight for revenge

Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land
To the story be heard tell of 303
Fighter pilots of Poland in the battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle

Even at night shadows cover the ground
Fighting goes on from dusk till dawn
We fall on the Reich with the claws of the eagle!
(They were) Ready to fight, (they were) ready to die
Up in the air, the battle goes on
They've proven their worth they have their revenge

Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land
Tell the story again to the 310
Men of Czechoslovakia in the battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle

Over the battlefield brave men long way from home
You are the chosen ones sent to the sky to die
Over the battlefield brave men long way from home
Few are the chosen ones sent to the sky to die

(Ooo) fly - it echoes in history
Turning the tides in the heavens above

Fighter pilots in exile fly for foreign land
When the battle's been won tell of 401
Fighter pilots of Canada in the battle of Britain
Guarding the skies of the isle

On wings of history, they turn from home
To live eternally, sky bound they roam
In all of history, never before
Was more owed to so few

Fighter pilots in exile!
