Where Eagles Dare
Iron Maiden
Pice Of Mind (1983)

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.


The Blizzard goes on but still they must fly.
No­one should go where eagles dare.


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.


Into the night, they fall through the sky.
No­one should fly where eagles dare.


They’re closing in the fortress is near,
it’s standing high in the sky.
The cable cars the only way in,
it’s really impossible to climb.


They make their way, but maybe too late.
They’ve got to try to save the day.


The panicking cries, the roaring of guns,
are echoing all round the valley.
The mission complete, they make to escape
away from the Eagles Nest.


They dared to go, where no­one would try.
They chose to fly, where eagles dare.
