Battle Of The Coral Sea - PotestasLunae
Lyrics by:Markus Nellemann Nielsen
Composed by:Markus Nellemann Nielsen

In the Coral Sea
A storm was brewing
May of forty-two
The winds of war were whistling
Skies turning dark from blue
With Japan's grand invasion plan
To claim Port Moresby's shore
Two mighty fleets set sail to clash
In a battle evermore
Oh the Battle of the Coral Sea
Where the tides of war did turn
Where planes soared high
And ships would fight
In waters vast and stern
No eyes would see the enemy
No cannon's roar would sound
Just planes that crossed the ocean's span
Where courage could be found
From the decks of Yorktown's pride
Our pilots took to flight
To meet the rising sun at dawn
And challenge in the night
With Tulagi taken
They struck back hard
In skies so wide and free
Sinking ships they gave their all
For the hope of victory
Oh the Battle of the Coral Sea
Where the tides of war did turn
Where planes soared high
And ships would fight
In waters vast and stern
No eyes would see the enemy
No cannon's roar would sound
Just planes that crossed the ocean's span
Where courage could be found
On the seventh day they met at last
The carriers fateful dance
Shōhō fell to bomb and flame
A fiery sea-bound trance
Lexington our Lady Lex
In smoke and fire did lay
But hearts stood firm the fight was won
As dawn broke on the day
Oh the Battle of the Coral Sea
Where the tides of war did turn
Where planes soared high
And ships would fight
In waters vast and stern
No eyes would see the enemy
No cannon's roar would sound
Just planes that crossed the ocean's span
Where courage could be found
With Shōkaku battered
Zuikaku's planes lost to the fight
The invasion fleet turned back in shame
Retreating in the night
A tactical loss but strategic gain
The Allies claimed the sea
For in that clash the tide was turned
Towards Midway's victory
Oh the Battle of the Coral Sea
Where the tides of war did turn
Where planes soared high
And ships would fight in waters vast and stern
No eyes would see the enemy
No cannon's roar would sound
Just planes that crossed the ocean's span
Where courage could be found
