The Fall of Gondolin

[Verse] Hidden city in the hills Shining bright with ancient thrills Walls so tall they kiss the sky Silent whispers as we cry [Verse 2] Warriors march with chiming steel Blades that sing and wounds that heal Enemies at every gate Fearless hearts defy their fate [Chorus] This is fate of Gondolin Shadows creeping from within Darkness rise and heroes fall But our spirit conquers all [Bridge] Mountains tremble dragons roar Legends live forevermore Elven songs in twilight fade Legends we once made [Verse 3] Night descends a starless veil Mighty warriors weak and pale Sparks of our final stand Glory slips through trembling hands [Verse 4] Secret paths and hidden ways Light fades into darker days Fire burns in anguished hearts Hope remains though we depart
