My Space - Charlotte Peters Rock

Cranage Airmen - Defenders of Peace

They flew over Liverpool
In clouds of smoke
And flowers of flame
They flew over Liverpool
To keep us safe
They played the game

But it was no game at all
Their lives floating high
Dying to save us all
They fell from the sky
ch
They came from across the earth
To win the world war
Showing what they were worth
Returning no more
ch
In Liverpool people saw
In gratitude there
Those men in their ariel war
To lift their despair
ch
But sixty years on who knows
Remembers their game
Their airfield is gone - who goes
To think of their name
ch
Those boys are all dead or old
Defences are down
Yet still all their gift was gold
Their bravery shown
ch
From Byley remember still
Young men in their prime
Winning by force of will
Remember their time

They flew over Liverpool
In clouds of smoke
And flowers of flame
They flew over Liverpool
To keep us safe
They played the game
