Dragon, Why do You Cry?

I searched for you for a thousand years
In my heart, I find you here
Look at me with your ancient eyes
Dragon, why do you cry?

I know you’re getting older
You feel behind but you’re forgetting
The world is make-believe
You’re still alive, you must keep dreaming

I dream of you, I dream of dragons
I’ll make you real

I’ve cried these tears for a thousand years
And no one cares, no one hears me
If you were me, you’d understand
Young man, I am not real

I know my time is over
The fantasy has all but faded
The world is moving on
And they won’t miss a lonely dragon

I don’t believe, believe in dragons
I don’t believe

No one cried on that fateful day
No holidays or grand parades
And why he came, it’s hard to say
But no one cared as he flew away

I dream of you, I dream of dragons
I dream of you, I still believe
I still believe, believe in dragons
I’m flying free
