(©Blind Guardian 1991)</p>

There are signs on the ring<br>
which make me feel so down<br>
there's one to enslave all rings<br>
to find them all in time<br>
and drive them into darkness<br>
forever they'll be bound<br>
Three for the Kings<br>
of the elves high in light<br>
nine to the mortal<br>
which cry</p>

Slow down and I sail on the river<br>
Slow dawn and I walk to the hill<br>
And there's now way out</p>

Mordor<br>
dark land under Sauron's spell<br>
threatened a long time<br>
threatened a long time<br>
Seven rings to the gnoms</p>

in their halls made of stone<br>
into the valley<br>
I feel down<br>
One ring for the dark lord's hand<br>
sitting on his throne<br>
in the land so dark<br>
where I've to go</p>

Slow down and I sail on the river<br>
Slow down and I walk to the hill<br>
Lord of the rings</p>
