Fight at last (*Rest in peace*)

(King Theoden is Meduseld preparing for battle while Eowyn helps)

Eowyn: I'm here locked inside this cage

Never had a chance to let go of any rage

But now that this war has come it's finally turned a page

Hummm

(Hands her uncle his sword) You're scared, you think that there's no hope

Just because I am a girl doesn't mean I cannot cope

But staying here is killing me so please throw me a rope (Turns away in exasperation)

(Turns back to her uncle, a tear in her eyes) I know, that your son's no longer here

But you have to trust the ones you love, the ones that are near (Runs to him grabbing his arm)

Let me ride by your side 'cos I no longer fear

(Grabs a sword and swings round)

And let me fight at last

Let me fight at last

Against this evil storm

Let me take this sword and battle for the country where I's born

I was born a warrior, my fate already cast

So let me fight at last

(Puts the sword down and looks beggingly at Theoden)

You know, that I am strong

And protecting the ones you love, you know that isn't wrong

I'll see it through, I'm begging you

Don't keep me waiting long

And let me fight at last

Let me fight at last

Against this evil storm

Let me take this sword and battle for the country where I's born

I was born a warrior, my fate already cast

So let me fight at last

I know I should go

So to come with you I will pray

Uncle please don't make me stay

If you do I will rot away

Please don't make me do what I can't obey

For you must know that I'm not afraid

So let me go

Let me fight at last

Against this evil storm

Let me take this sword and battle for the country where I's born

I was born a warrior, my fate already cast

So let me fight at last

Why won't you let me fight at last?

(Finishes on her knees at her uncle's feet)

Lord of Orthanc (*Sweets song*)

(Saruman is stood on the balcony of Orthanc looking down. Gandalf, King Theoden, Eomer, Aragorn, Legolas and Gimli are stood on the steps below looking up at him)

Saruman: (Sneering) You're alive, and I see you're free

Why d'ya come around? Why won't you let me be?

(Waves his hand in disgust)I don't need this conversation

I don't want to know about your celebration

So why are you here - what do you want from me?

(Draws himself up to full height) I'm a wizard great

As you all have seen

(Puts on his charming voice) And you know your friend

Is what I've always been

(Looks pleadingly at them) Now I look and I am besieged

Do what's right and call off the trees

Why should anyone lose when we all can win? (Smiles)

Cos I know how feel, king

I know just how you feel, king

Theoden: (Questioningly) But you sent your army to destroy my lands

Saruman: But when you hear my voice there's doubt in your mind

And when you look in your heart I'm sure you will find

That my king you are deceived

By the counsels you have received

This ragged band have made you blind

Here I was found, before you were crowned

A friend of your fathers afore

Gandalf you admire but that wizards a liar (Points at Gandalf)

Trust me like you did before

Cos I know how you feel king

Gimli: (Addressing the king) It's absurd, see his words

Are trying to confuse you

Saruman: I know just how you feel king

Eomer: Uncle please, can't you see

He's trying to bemuse you

Saruman: (Spits nastily at Eomer) Be quiet, don't try and be an advisor

Leave these peace talks to those who are wiser

Theoden: (Looks down resignedly) No you're right, it's my plight

And long I'll endevour

Saruman: (Charming voice again) I knew my good lord you would see reason

To stand against me you know would be treason

Theoden: (Looks up at Saruman with a hard face) You're a fool, this land I rule

And I will bow to you never

Saruman: (Angry) Never?

Theoden: Never
