Tired eyes on the sunrise, waiting for the eastern glow.

The pain of war cannot exceed the woe of aftermath,

The drums will shake the castle wall, the Ringwraiths ride in black, Ride..

No comfort has the fire at night that lights the face so cold.

About this song: The Battle Of Evermore

This song is an outstanding mandolin and acoustic guitar piece by the 1970's British rock band Led Zeppelin. With music written by Jimmy Page and lyrics by Robert Plant, this beautiful and compelling song is from the Led Zeppelin IV album which was released in 1971. The answering backup vocals were done by vocalist Sandy Denny from the folk band Fairport Convention, making the song the only time in their entire career that Led Zeppelin used an outside singer.
