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
No one 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
No one should fly
Where eagles dare

They're closing in the fortress is near
It's standing high in the sky
The cable car's 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 around the valley
The mission complete
They make to escape away from the Eagles Nest

They dared to go
Where no one would try
They chose to fly
Where eagles dare
