Lyrics
Gathering Darkness
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Look I tell you, the moment calls you though I hoped it would never come
Your part begins here, the final mist clear don't wait 'til tomorrow leave tonight
These are the days without a trust, and travel in secret, yes you must
Deny yourself now and all your fears how, be brave and great forces 'll be with you
I hear his voice in the night, a prophecy of no morning light
Unless we succeed to tie back the hands of hate in the gathering darkness
Be on your guard now, get out of Shire and stay of the roads, be still by night
at the homely inn is where I'll meet you, good faith, don't you leave him out of sight
I can't relieve this burden that heavily rests upon your shoulders
I'm sad to leave you now but I will seek advice at the head of my order
He will help us to face our destiny
I hear his voice in the night, a prophecy of no morning light
Unless we succeed to tie back the hands of hate and the gathering darkness
I hear his voice in the night, this demon eye hunts across the sky
Shadows move in the dark the enemy rides again in the gathering darkness
I hear his voice in the night, a prophecy of no morning light
Unless we succeed to tie back the hands of hate in the gathering darkness
I hear his voice in the night, this demon eye hunts across the sky
His magic's too strong my will come undone before this cold and gathering darkness
