Due to our magic songs.
There's only one song,

Who lived far from here.
Now the bard songs are over,
And it's time to leave.
No one should ask You for the name Of the one,.
Who tells the story.
[Ref.:]
Tomorrow will take us away,
Far from home,
No one will ever know our names,
But the bards' songs will remain.
Tomorrow all will be known,
And You're not alone,
So don't be afraid,
In the dark and cold,
'Cause the bards' songs will remain,
They all will remain.

In my thoughts and in my dreams,
C G Am
They're always in my mind,
C G Am
These songs of hobbits, dwarves and men,
C
And elves,
G Am
Come close Your eyes..
C G Em
You can see them, too..
