Snippets Adele's new James Bond theme song leaked earlier this week on the Internet, but the entire song has now been released.
The song, which shares the same name as the new film due out Oct. 23, was composed by Thomas Newman, who has also composed music for "Angels in America," "Finding Nemo," "American Beauty" and "The Help."
Adele posted a photo on Twitter with what appears to be the song's sheet music. The song was written by Adele and Paul Epworth, who produced her hit "Rolling in the Deep."
The spy-themed song uses a full orchestra and soft backing vocals.
Skyfall is directed by Sam Mendes, who won the best director Oscar for his directorial debut "American Beauty." The film stars mainstay Judi Dench, Javier Bardem as the villain, Naomie Harris as the Bond Girl, Ralph Fiennes and Daniel Craig as the title character.
Song lyrics:
This is the end
Hold your breath and count to ten
Feel the earth move and then
Hear my heart burst again
For this is the end
I've drowned and dreamed this moment
So overdue, I owe them
Swept away, I'm stolen
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
Skyfall is where we start
A thousand miles and poles apart
When worlds collide, and days are dark
You may have my number, you can take my name
But you'll never have my heart
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
Where you go I go,
What you see I see
I know I'll never be me, without the security
Are your loving arms
Keeping me from harm
Put your hand in my hand
And we'll stand
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
Let the sky fall, when it crumbles
We will stand tall
Face it all together
At skyfall
Let the sky fall
We will stand tall
At skyfall
