Heather Dale - One of Us (w/ lyrics)

LYRICS IN THE DESCRIPTION!

same as my first vid, heather dale songs from the album 'call the name'

song: One of Us
artist: Heather Dale
album: Call the Name


lyrics:

before i got to fighting,
or when fighting got to me,
i looked to find examples on the field of chivalry

i saw mighty arms much stronger
than my arms would ever be,
and i thought perhaps the field was not for me.


but i stayed and watched the fighting,
'till one figure stood apart,
in armour nearly fashioned,
and a helm more pot than art.


but each blow was thrown with honor,
and a lightness of the heart,
so i took that step which soon became a start.


'cause She was not the biggest fighter,
nor one to raise a fuss,
But I remember being proud that she was one of us.


and we might never stand together
in the shield-wall side by side,
but because of her i lift my sword with pride.


she was ladylike and lively,
not the type you would expect.
with a braver heart than many,
and a slot-shot to respect.


i guess she'd once decided
this was where she'd like to be,
and i thought if she could do it,
why not me?


'cause She was not the biggest fighter,
nor one to raise a fuss,
But I remember being proud that she was one of us.


and we might never stand together
in the shield-wall side by side,
but because of her i lift my sword with pride.


So now as I gather armour,
bits and pieces here and there,
I think about examples:
how you act, and what you dare;


Cause you never know whos watching,
or how far the story goes,
And where eer that lady is,
I hope she knows.



'cause She was not the biggest fighter,
nor one to raise a fuss,
But I remember being proud that she was one of us.


and we might never stand together
in the shield-wall side by side,
but because of her i lift my sword with pride.


we may never stand together
in the shield-wall side by side,
but because of her i lift my sword with pride.

I thought it was Joan of arc... she was the greatest fighter on the field and was given up by her own men and burned at the stake...

[khajiit92]

theres another song about joan by heather i think.

i don't think this one is about joan though.

[HeatherJDale]

@khajiit92 This is about a very close friend of mine, Bernadette. She was killed in a car crash some years ago.

[khajiit92]

@HeatherJDale sorry to hear about that, my condolences.

and holy sh- i don't know if it's really you but if it is, wow! heather dale commented on my vid! it really changes the meaning knowing the inspiration of the song.

[Daciana93]

you know what would be a perfect thing for this song? If they ever made movies about Tamora Pierce's books... especially any about Alana or Kel....

[EmoSithProductions]

@Daciana93

More like Kel's thoughts about Alanna. It just fits the way she thinks about her and how she always turns to her image of the Lioness when she doesn't know what to do.

@HeatherJDale an amazing woman

[inubaka13]

@BluePearlSiren There's already a book out about a woman and a selkir. It's called Seven Tears Into the Sea. So sad. And everytime I read it, I think of heather Dale.

[DemonioWolfDog]

@HeatherJDale

Um...milady, I would be most grateful if I could perhaps have your permission to write a book around your "Maiden and The Selkie", including you as a character. I would be honored if you would grant me such permission, of course with a dedication to you and the song at the beginning of the book. Please let me know :)
