Calling calming silence,
Accompanied only by the full moon.
The howling of a night wolf,
And the path under my bare feet....
....The Elvenpath
Hearing music from the deepest forest.
Songs as a seduction of sirens.
The elf-folk is calling me.
Tapio, Bear-king, Ruler of the Forest.
Mielikki, Bluecloak, Healer of the ill and sad.
Open the gate and let me follow the uncarven path.
The way to the lands
Where as a hero, I stand.
The path where Beauty met the Beast
Elvenpath.
It's the honesty of these worlds,
Ruled by magic and mighty swords
That makes my soul long for the past.
Elvenpath.
The moonwitch took me to a ride on a broomstick,
Introduced me to her old friend home gnome,
Told me to keep the sauna warm for him.
At the grove I met the rest- the folk of my fantasies.
Bilbo, Sparhawk, goblins and pixies,
Snowman, Willow, trolls and the Seven Dwarves.
The path goes forever on..
The way to the lands..
As I return to my room
And as sleep takes me by my hand
Madrigals from the woods
Carry me to Neverland
In this spellbound night
The world's an elvish sight
In this spellbound night.
The world's an elvish sight.
-Nightwish, 'Elvenpath'
