Lionheart - V Is For Victory

From the album “The Grace Of A Dragonfly“ (Out 23 Feb 2024) Preorder here: Stream ’V Is For Victory’ here: spotify:album:1cVMq0sdHLQRhJGJoagU8X Contrary to its title, V Is For Victory is actually an up-tempo lament for the terrible loss and grief suffered by countless innocent civilians on all sides during a war. But its soaring, powerful choruses counter this with hope for the future with a call for all peoples to come together and find a way to create a peaceful world.

Just think of fallen heroes Left names upon a wall What price they all paid The sacrifice they made To try and save us all V is for victory creating history This is a victory for all humanity This brings a dawn of a new day Stand up, together we will find a way To turn skies blue from grey So many mothers mourn And rue the day their sons Were caught up in this storm So many babies born Without a father families torn And turned upside down Was it worth it? Fallen heroes Names now on a wall The price they all paid What sacrifice they made Unselfishly not saved One by one they’d fall V is for victory creating history This is a victory for all humanity This brings a dawn of a new day Stand up, together we will find a way To turn skies blue from grey Thank god for VE Day Just think of fallen heroes Left names upon a wall What price they all paid What sacrifice they made To save us all V is for victory creating history This is a victory for all humanity This brings a dawn of a new day Stand up, together we will find a way To turn skies blue from grey Well I’m always chasing rainbows Watching clouds go drifting by My schemes are just like all my dreams Ending in the sky
