Texty: Blind Guardian. Nightfall In Middle-Earth. Nightfall.

No sign of life did flicker
In floods of tears she cried
"All hope's lost it can't be undone
They're wasted and gone"

Save me your speeches, I know
(They blinded us all)
What you want?
You will take it away from me, take it and I know for sure
The light she once brought in is gone forevermore

Like sorrowful seagulls they sang
(We're)
Lost in the deep shades, the misty cloud brought
(A wailing when beauty was gone)
(Come take a look at the sky)

Monstrous it covered the shore
Fearful into the unknown, quietly it crept in new horror
Insanity reigned and spilled the first blood
When the old king was slain

Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony

How long shall we mourn in the dark
The bliss and the beauty will not return
Say farewell to sadness and grief
Though long and hard the road may be

But even in silence I heard the words
An oath we shall swear, by the name of the one
Until the world's end it can't be broken
Just wondering how I can still hear these voices inside

The doom of the Noldor drew near
The words of a banished king
I swear revenge filled with anger aflamed our hearts
Full of hate full of pride we screamed for revenge

Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony

Vala he is that's what you said
Then your oath's been sworn in vain
(But)
Freely you came and you freely shall depart
(So)
Never trust the northern winds
Never turn your back on friends

Oh, I'm heir of the high Lord
You better don't trust him
The enemy of mine, isn't he of your kind and
Finally you may follow me, farewell he said

Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, quietly crept in and changed us all
Nightfall, immortal land lies down in agony

Back to where it all began
