Hey, Elfmaster, would you mind if I did another version of Candle in the Wind? I mean, yours was terrific, but I was suddenly inspired to mangle it about someone else. . .but of course I'll only do it if it's okay with you.

Why of course you can! I don't mind.

I did Goodbye yellow brick road for ya...

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road - Elton John
Goodbye Beautiful Shire - E XK

I'm sorry you can't come with me
On this final journey, Sam
You say i should stay in the Shire
Should listen to my old Sam

You know i can't live forever
On my own, or with you
I've got to do this one alone
You can't be constantly torn in two

Ah, Ah,
So goodbye beautiful Shire
Where the good hobbit people live
I'll miss you my beautiful home
And i'll miss you all too
Going over the sea, into the West
Your persistance to follow i admire
But i've finally decided my future lies
Beyond the Beautiful Shire
Ah, Ah.

What will i do without you?
My faithful friend, Sam
You've got Rosie now, and your little kid
On the way, you don't need me Sam

In your heart you know why i go
It hurts me to stay
From a long carried burden
You've helped me on the way, let me go.


Ah, Ah,
So goodbye beautiful Shire
Where the good hobbit people live
I'll miss you my beautiful home
And i'll miss you all too
Going over the sea, into the West
Thank you for all that you've done Sam, my dear,
Your future Sam, lies right here]
Goodbye Beautiful Shire
Ah, Ah.

Thank you E XK *hic* Good luck on your exam! And I hope your last one went well...here, have some vodka, to celebrate being done with that one.

*enjoys not having exams to worry about. remembers the papers. panics. writes a song entitled, The Ballad of Eruviel's senior thesis.*

Oh it was insanely early on monday morning,
and the paper, it still was not done. . .

Another request from eowyn144

Sailing On An Elf Ship
(Originally LEAVING ON A JETPLANE by John Denver)

All my pipes are packed I'm ready to row
I'm marching here towards the shore
I hate to break your sup to say goodbye
But the Age is breakin' these next few morns
Cirdan is waitin' he's callin' me on
I hope you won't be lonesome please don't cry

Kiss Rosie, Sam, smile for me
Tell me that you'll follow me
Love her like you've never loved before
Cause I'm sailing on an elf ship
Don't think that I'll be back again
But Sam my wounds hurt so

There's so many times I've pushed you down
Those many climbs We've sneaked around
I tell you now that you've helped bring that ring
Every Isle I go I'll think of you
Every ring I smoke I'll smoke for you
When you come forth I wish we then can sing

Kiss Rosie, Sam, smile for me
Tell me that you'll follow me
Love her like you've never loved before
Cause I'm sailing on an elf ship
Don't think that I'll be back again
But Sam my wounds hurt so

Now the time has come to leave you
One more time let me hug you
Gandalf calls, I'll be on my way
Dream about your kids, young dad
Fair Elanor and Frodo-Lad
Young Rosie-Lass, and Merry, come what may...

Kiss Rosie, Sam, smile for me
Tell me that you'll follow me
Love her like you've never loved before
Cause I'm sailing on an elf ship
Don't think that I'll be back again
But Sam my wounds hurt so

Sailing on an elf ship
Sailing on an elf ship

I almost didn't need to search for the lyrics on that one. That was my favorite song even before I went to kindergarten when I was 4. My late dad said that was the only record in his collection that I listened to then.

OK. All faint in shock for i have mangled a song!!!

presenting originally Seasons in the Sun


~Fading to a Nazgul

Goodbye Samwise, It’s hard to die
You say I’ll be ok,
But it’s a lie,
I hear the Nazgul – “Come to me”
And now my heart is filled with fear,
Fow now you shed a single tear.

Goodbye Gandalf, please come to me,
You aren’t here now and
You weren’t in Bree
I see you pacing up and down
With your face set in a frown
As in the dark, I start to drown

we had quests we had jobs we had
evil to destroy,
but the places that weve gone
will be evil b’fore to long.

goodbye my friends, Pip and Merry,
you were always there
for me
And now I see you looking sad,
For I shall soon be something bad
Hate to lose the things we had

goodbye Strider it´s hard to leave
but this darkness I
can just not heave
Now its time for me to go
And become your greatest foe
I hope I do not cause much woe

we had quests we had jobs we had
evil to destroy,
but the places that weve gone
they’ll be evil b’fore to long.
we had quests we had jobs we had
evil to destroy,
but the places that weve gone
they’ll be evil b’fore to long.

goodbye to you, I see the end
I’m cloaked in shadow, no one to defend
And with this wound upon my chest
Blackness in my heart will infest
Because one shard in me does rest

But now I see a shining light,
It wakes me up and makes me want to fight,
Glorfindel puts me on his horse,
I make it ride with all my force,
I beat those nazgul, no remorse.


we had quests we had jobs we had
evil to destroy,
but the places that weve gone
they’ll be evil b’fore to long.


There was darkness there was death, I thought
that I was in hell,
But now everyone is safe for we are housed in Rivendell.
seasons have all gone


There was darkness there was death, I thought
that I was in hell,
But now everyone is safe for we are housed in Rivendell.
seasons have all gone


There was darkness there was death, I thought
that I was in hell,
But now everyone is safe for we are housed in Rivendell.
seasons have all gone

One more before I go to sleep at 3am...(I need to stay up after about 19 hrs for Attack of the Clones! )

This one's based on "The Look of Love from one of the James Bond Films in the 60's:

The Fool of Tooks
(Originally The Look of Love by Burt Bacharach and Hal David: Sung by Dusty Springfield)

The Fool of Tooks has seen your eye,
A Took your wiles can't fool twice.
The Fool of Tooks, you're seeing so much more
Than some halflings you should seek.
And when your Wraiths have heard,
Well, they'll take their breath away.
I can hardly wait to see you,
Stake my claims around you,
How long I have waited,
Waited just to scare you,
Now that I outflank you;
You've seen the Fool of Tooks,
He's what you face,
The Took that orcs can't erase.
You're mine this Age,
Let this be just the start of
Your many frights like this;
I'll take my kingdom now
and then heal it with a kiss.
I can hardly wait to see you,
Stake my claims around you,
How long I have waited,
Waited just to scare you,
Now that I outflank you;
You better go.
You better go.
I'll see you go.
