Nightwish
"Elvenpath"

In the sheltering shade of the forest
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

-Chorus-
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

-Chorus-

Long ago
In the early years of the Second Age
Great elven smiths forged rings of
power

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

But then
The Dark Lord learned the craft of
ringmaking
And made the master ring
