Dragon's Tears


Beyond the vast wasteland
where there was ice and fire
broods the lonely bard
strumming his saddened lyre

What has become of the dragon
where was his deadly foe
where were the mighty warriors
in days of long ago

(chorus)

So the dragon cries in vain
as he has for many years
and we all know that the rain
was once the dragon's tears

Far past the pink ice caps
brightly shining in the sun
is where the dragon's quest
had once begun

He would call with a mighty roar
but no answer was heard
and, alas, no more
were no dragon's word.

(chorus)

In his heart no desire,
no flames circle his head
in his soul, no reign of fire
in his eyes, tears instead

So, if you sometimes wonder
why the dragons cry
inquire of the bard
your quest he won't deny
