Eloy - Jeanne d'Arc Lyrics

Brought you the message
of a higher destination
that to fulfill you were assigned

A native maid of tender
age and dedication
born in a dark and restless age
You had no doubts but
fears and asked the reasons why
but still you carried on

There will come the day of
liberation and glory
and we'll be relieved from
all the torture and pain
after fighting war for
values sacred and holy
in the history of mankind
Your name will remain

Guided by your fearless force
they take up arms and heed your call
Now the propehsy comes true
the tyrant's slain in the name of god
in a rage of war
Out of the seeds of superstition
and guided by a devious plan
the tension grows as you
approach the inquisition
For to your fate you must resign

Your deeds of valour done
your followers desert you
before the jury now you stand
a final sacrifice on
your celestial mission
condemned to burn alive

Jeanne Jeanne
deny the voices in your mind
Jeanne Jeanne
there's stlll a chance to stay alive

we pray for you, we know
Jeanne Jeanne
Say, why go this far?

Light,
You're gliding into light
with angels at your side
embracing you so tight
to shelter you from pain
they sentenced you in vain
your spirit will arise
to melt with heaven's light
eternal and divine
your sacrifice will shine
You left a warning sign
you martyr and you saint
you worded no complaint
as at the end you faint
to rise to heavens ight

you're right

all the torture and pain
after fighting war for
val ues sacred and holy
in the history of mankind
Your name will remain

Light,
You're gliding into light
with angels at your side
em bracing you so tight
to shelter you from pain
they sentenced you in vain
your spirit wil arise
to melt with heaven's light
eternal and divine
your sacrifice will shine
You left a warning sign
you martyr and you saint
you worded no complaint
as at the end you faint
to rise to heavens light.
