THE GIRL AND THE DRAGON
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rukgKds1txA
The stars sail away 'cross the heavens to vanish and sometimes to fall
And a girl stands alone in a doorway with the loneliest wish of them all
For the man of her dreams is still sleeping like the dragon in some old fairy tale
The girl in the doorway is weeping as she watches a star fall and fail
And she wishes her heart will be granted the love of a dragon who sleeps
In a cave on the side of a mountain unaware of the tears that she weeps
A girl walks alone by the river, searching the woods for a sign
She'll wait for her dragon forever, forever is such a long time
The dragon is terribly busy, breathing the fire of his kind
He makes his way down to the river and the girl he is destined to find
She asks him what will he be having, "The heart of a girl", he replies
"One that is truly worth having, one that refuses to die!"
From the east came a rider on horseback, a valiant St. George of the lance
Whose business was murdering dragons and teaching young maidens to dance
He rode his horse down to the river and he challenged the dragon to fight
He came and he saw and he conquered, but alas to no maiden’s delight
For there in the dust lay no dragon but a dying young beautiful man
Transformed by the sword of a vision to a meaningless death on the sand
The stars sail away 'cross the heavens to vanish and sometimes to fall
And a girl stands alone in a doorway with the loneliest wish of them all
For the man of her dreams is still sleeping like the dragon in some old fairy tale
The girl in the doorway is weeping as she watches a star fall and fail
And she wishes her heart will be granted the love of a dragon who sleeps
In a cave on the side of a mountain unaware of the tears that she weeps
