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 real 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
