Best Song Lyric


Skyfall
This is the end.
Hold your breath and count to ten.
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again.

For this is the end.
I’ve drowned and dreamt this moment.
So overdue I owe them.
Swept away, I’m stolen.

Let the sky fall.
When it crumbles,
We will stand tall,
Face it all together.

Let the sky fall.
When it crumbles,
We will stand tall,
Face it all together
At skyfall.
At skyfall.

Skyfall is where we start,
A thousand miles and poles apart.
When worlds collide and days are dark.
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you’ll never have my heart.

Let the sky fall.
When it crumbles,
We will stand tall.
Where you go, I go.
What you see, I see.
I know I’ll never be me
Without the security
Of your loving arms
Keeping me from harm.
Put you hand in my hand
And we’ll stand.

Let the sky fall.
When it crumbles,
We will stand tall,
Face it all together.
Let the sky fall.
When it crumbles,
We will stand tall,
Face it all together
At skyfall.

Let the sky fall.
We will stand tall
At skyfall,
Ooh.
