I See Fire - Single

Oh misty eye of the Mountain below
 Keep careful watch of my brothers’ souls
 And should the sky be filled with fire and smoke
 Keep watching over Durin’s sons


 If this is to end in fire
 Then we shall all burn together
 Watch the flames climb higher
 Into the night


 Calling out father oh
 Stand by and we will
 Watch the flames burn on and on
 The mountainside


 And if we should die tonight
 We should all die together
 Raise a glass of wine
 For the last time


 Calling out father oh
 Prepare as we will
 Watch the flames burn on and on
 The mountainside


 Desolation comes upon the sky


 Now I see fire
 Inside the mountain
 I see fire
 Burning the trees
 And I see fire
 Hollowing souls
 I see fire
 Blood in the breeze


 And I hope that you’ll remember me


 Oh should my people fall then
 Surely I’ll do the same
 Confined in mountain halls
 We got too close to the flame


 Calling out father oh
 Hold fast and we will
 Watch the flames burn on and on
 The mountainside


 Desolation comes upon the sky


 Now I see fire
 Inside the mountain
 I see fire
 Burning the trees
 And I see fire
 Hollowing souls
 I see fire
 Blood in the breeze


 And I hope that you’ll remember me


 And if the night is burning
 I will cover my eyes
 For if the dark returns
 Then my brothers will die


 And as the sky is falling down
 It crashed into this lonely town
 And with that shadow upon the ground
 I hear my people screaming out


 Now I see fire
 Inside the mountains
 I see fire
 Burning the trees
 I see fire
 Hollowing souls
 I see fire
 Blood in the breeze


 I see fire
 (Oh you know I saw a city burning)
 Fire
 And I see fire
 (Feel the heat upon my skin)
 Fire
 And I see fire
 (Uh-uh-uh-uh)
 Fire


 And I see fire burn on and on
 The mountainside
