Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It's snowing outside, the rumbling sound of engines roar in the night
The mission is near, the confident men are waiting to drop from the sky
[Verse 2]
The blizzard goes on
But still, they must fly
No one should go
Where eagles dare
[Verse 3]
Bavarian Alps that lay all around, they seem to stare from below
The enemy lines a long time passed are lying deep in the snow
[Verse 4]
Into the night
They fall through the sky
No one should fly
Where eagles dare
[Verse 5]
They're closing in, the fortress is near, it's standing high in the sky
The cable car's the only way in, it's really impossible to climb
[Verse 6]
They make their way
But maybe too late
They've got to try
To save the day
[Verse 7]
The panicking cries, the roaring of guns are echoing all around the valley
The mission complete, they make to escape away from the Eagle's Nest
[Verse 8]
They dared to go
Where no one would try
They chose to fly
Where eagles dare
