If you haven’t heard Billy Boyd sing The Last Goodbye from The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies then with just one click on the above play button left in the image and let him take you to Middle Earth.
The clip includes plenty of shots and behind the scenes from both the Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings series.
After the lyrics below, Billy talk about his time with the crew on The Lord of the Rings and about his music at the Fan Expo Vancouver in 2014.
He’s a very funny and gifted man.
Plus he sings Edge of Night on request towards the end. It’s raw footage so the sound is a bit shaky in places. You can read the lyrics for The Last Goodbye below.
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 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
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
To 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
I bid you all a very fond farewell
