[Movement I. 00:00-03:10]
[Instrumental intro 0:00-02:05]
[Intro]
To ride the storm to an empire of the clouds
To ride the storm, they climbed aboard their silver ghost
To ride the storm to a kingdom that will come
To ride the storm and damn the rest, oblivion
[Verse 1]
Royalty and dignitaries, brandy and cigars
Grey lady, giant of the skies, you hold them in your arms
The millionth chance, they laughed
To take down his majesty's craft
"To India", they say, "magic carpet, float away"
An October fateful day
[Movement II. 03:10-06:58]
[Verse 2]
Mist is in the trees, stone sweats with the dew
The morning sunrise, red before the blue
Hanging at the mast, waiting for command
His Majesty's airship, the R101
