Lyrics
[Intro]
Once in a village
Where elves did dwell
Lived a young maiden
Her name was , Janelle (Janelle)
Now, if you desire
Pull up a chair,
Sit by my fire
Her tale I will tell (Her tale I will tell)
[Happy Verse]
A sparkle in her eyes,
She set out one day
To seek adventure
And find her own way
[Break]
Through enchanted forests
She danced with delight
Her heart full of wonder
Her eyes shining bright (shining bright!)
[Dramatic Verse]
But danger awaited
In shadows unseen
Bandits and creatures
Cruel and obscene
[Instrumental]
Out of the gloom three figures emerged
The trio advanced on our fair Janelle
Hunger in their eyes & hearts full of hate
(Hearts full of hate!)
With a flick of her wrist
Janelle drew her sharp blade...
Forged in fire and long ago made
Fearless and determined (she stood unafraid)
[Short Interlude]
The first bandit pounced
And Janelle met his attack
Slashing his arm
and pushing him back
With eyes aglow, she held her ground
In the forest dark, no fear to be found
Her blade sang a song of defiance
[Pre-chorus]
Her blade sang a song of defiance!
Out of the gloom three figures emerged
The trio advanced on our fair Janelle
Hunger in their eyes & hearts full of hate
(Hearts full of hate!)
With a flick of her wrist
Janelle drew her sharp blade...
Forged in fire and long ago made
Fearless and determined (she stood unafraid)
[Short Interlude]
The first bandit pounced
And Janelle met his attack
Slashing his arm
and pushing him back
With eyes aglow, she held her ground
In the forest dark, no fear to be found
Her blade sang a song of defiance
[Pre-chorus]
Her blade sang a song of defiance!
The second cur lunged with a shout!
Janelle was ready ... she spun around
Her dagger found its mark
The bastard hit the ground!
[Pre-chorus]
Her dagger found its mark!
[Verse]
In the chaos of battle, her mettle was tested
But she would not be bested!
Janelle fought for her life, her honour, her kin
Determined that justice and light would win!
[Instrumental]
The last bandit faltered,
his resolve breaking like waves
against the fierceness of the elf
(breaking like waves)
[Break]
With a final strike
Janelle ended the fray
Exhausted, she fell
As night slowly turned to day!
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
The last bandit faltered
His resolve breaking like waves
Against the fierceness of the elf
(Breaking like waves)
[Break]
With a final strike
Janelle ended the fray
Exhausted, she fell slowly to the ground
As night turned to day!
[Instrumental]
[Outro]
