Dear Frodo by Minto and Lila
Can you hear the waves, dear Frodo?
I remember long ago, another lifetime now, it seems
By the Anduin, dear Frodo
You were mumbling to yourself and you were staring off afar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of orc horns calling, coming from afar
They came closer, Mr Frodo
Every minute, every second seemed to last eternally
I was so afraid, dear Frodo
We were young and full of life and we were not prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of orcs in battle almost made me cry
Oh, those Uruks gave us all a fright
Your sword shone bright then, Frodo
They were searching then for you and me,
Pip and Merry, dear Frodo
Though we knew there was so much to lose
There's no regret
If we had to do the same again
We would, my friend, my Frodo
If we had to do the same again
We would, my friend, my Frodo
Though I’m old and grey now, Frodo
Since many years I haven't seen your sword held in your hand
Do you recall the orc drums, Frodo?
In those mines I was so very glad I kept my pots and pans
I recall I was surprised
How lethal they could be to orcs in hobbit hands!
Oh, those orcs, they put up quite a fight
Your sword shone bright then, Frodo
They were wielding lots of swords and spears
Round Gimli's ears, dear Frodo
Though we knew there was so much to lose
There's no regret
If we had to do the same again
We would, my friend, my Frodo
Oh, those orcs, they put up quite a fight
Your sword shone bright then, Frodo
They were wielding lots of swords and spears
Round Gimli's ears, dear Frodo
Though we knew there was so much to lose
There's no regret
If we had to do the same again
We would, my friend, my Frodo
Yes, if we had to do the same again
We would, my friend, my Frodo
