Have you ever wondered what a dragon dreams
when he lays down his head at night

Do you think he dreams of maidens fair
or a shining armored knight

And dreams of flying off to a far and distant land
where he can live in peace, dreaming on tropical sands

Where no one wants to slay him and he can be at ease
living a life in freedom like the wind playing in the trees

Does he dream of other dragons back in days of old
when skies were dark with thousands, that's what I've been told

And in his dreams does he wonder why the mortals hated him so
why they hunted and killed him wherever he did go

They say he was fierce and evil with fire in every breath
but this was only in self defense when into his lair they crept

They killed his mate and offsping and robbed him of his home
and now the few remaining dragons forever the earth do roam

They are trying to find their freedom, a place to dwell in peace
somewhere they can start over, this proud and magnificent beast

Now let the dragons sleep tonight,
dream their dreams till morning's light
When daylight comes may you bid them adieu
As they fly to their island...to a peace so new
