Lightning At The Gates

From the Rhône through the mountains, they go

As the winter's drawin' near
Fast approachin' change of season's threatenin'
March over mountains, an army ascends
As their time is runnin' out
A desperate move, a brave surprise
A threat to Rome comes from the North
Through the rocks they go

Through the ice, through the cold and snow

Over the mountains, an army far from home
Leadin' beast and man through cold and snow
Marchin', they're movin' on Rome
Guided by the stars, light the valley below

Break the illusion of their foe
As they cross the range where no armies go
Marchin', descendin' on Rome
From the peaks to the heart of their foe

Lead by Gauls to find the way
Unite the tribes to show them through the mountains
Higher and higher, across the divide
Face the odds, the mountains' wrath
They took the unexpected path
To the battles that await them down below

Through the ice, through the cold and snow

Over the mountains, an army far from home
Leadin' beast and man through cold and snow
Marchin', they're movin' on Rome
Guided by the stars, light the valley below

Break the illusion of their foe
As they cross the range where no armies go
Marchin', descendin' on Rome
From the peaks to the heart of their foe

From the Rhône through the mountains, they go

Over the mountains, an army far from home
Leadin' beast and man through cold and snow
Marchin', they're movin' on Rome
Guided by the stars, light the valley below

Break the illusion of their foe
As they cross the range where no armies go
Marchin', descendin' on Rome
From the peaks to the heart of their

Mountains, an army far from home
Leadin' beast and man through cold and snow
Marchin', they're movin' on Rome
Guided by the stars, light the valley below

Break the illusion of their foe
As they cross the range where no armies go
Marchin', descendin' on Rome
From the peaks to the heart of their

Range where no armies go
From the peaks to the heart of their foe
