The Last Goodbye — Billy Boyd
[The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, End Title credits song]

“i saw the light fade from the sky,
on the wind i heard a sigh.
as the snowflakes cover
my fallen brothers,
i will say this last goodbye.

night is now falling,
so is this day.
the road is now calling,
and i must away.
over hill and under tree,
through lands where never
light has shone.
by silver streams that run down
to the sea.

under cloud,
beneath the stars,
over snow and winter’s morn,
i turn at last
to paths that lead home.

and though, where
the road then takes me
i cannot tell,
we came all this way,
but now comes the day
to bid you farewell…

many places i have been.
many sorrows i have seen.
but i don’t regret,
nor will i forget
all who took that road with me.

night is now falling,
so ends this day.
the road is now calling,
and i must away.
over hill and under tree,
through lands where never
light has shone.
by silver streams that run down
to the sea…

to these memories i will hold,
with your blessing i will go.
through turn and last,
to paths that lead home.

and though, where
the road then takes me
i cannot tell,
we came all this way,
but now comes the day
to bid you farewell…

i bid you all
a very fond
‘farewell.’”
