Heather Dale - One Of Us (Imagineer) 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 So I thought perhaps the field was not for me But I stayed and watched the fighting till one figure stood apart In armour newly fashioned, and a helm more pot than art But each blow was thrown with honour and a lightness of the heart So I took that step that soon became a start (CHORUS:) She was not the biggest fighter, nor one to make a fuss But I remember being proud that she was one of us And we might never stand together in a shield-wall side by side Because of her I lift my sword with pride Now 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 I thought, if she could do it, why not me? (CHORUS) 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 who's watching or how far that story goes Where'er that lady is, I hope she knows 'Cause she was not the biggest fighter, nor one to make a fuss But I remember being proud that she was one of us And we might never stand together in a shield-wall side by side Because of her I lift my sword with pride We might never stand together in a shield-wall side by side Because of her I lift my sword with pride
