Dragonflight

Words & Music: Chris Malme
Inspired by "The White Dragon" by Anne McCaffrey

Daybreak, and not a cloud is in the sky.
Time to wake, wipe the sleep from out my eyes.
This is the morning I've been waiting for,
A morning like there's never been before.

This day, I hope to see my dream come true.
I pray, let me share my dream with you.
I've been waiting for so long, my friend,
Now the time for waiting's at an end

There's nothing they can say to me
To keep me from my destiny.
Though others do their best to try
They know that I won't be denied.
The time is here - both you and I know it,
And though there's fear, I'll try not to show it.

    So spread your wings reach for the sky,
    I'll take the chance if you will try.
    We'll go together, you and I,
    We'll fly,
    We'll fly.

They laughed when we first made our stand,
Two runts together on the sand.
They said that you would likely die,
And if you lived you'd never fly.
But they were wrong, as they will discover,
For we are strong, 'cos we have each other.

    So spread your wings reach for the sky,
    I'll take the chance if you will try.
    We'll go together, you and I,
    We'll fly...

Take a look around you, have you ever seen a sky so blue?
Dragon-song is in the air, can't you hear it calling out to you?
This is what we came here for,
This what we only dared to dream about before.
Take a look around you, then spread you wings and take me higher.

Instrumental...

The time is here - both you and I know it,
And though there's fear, I'll try not to show it.
We'll prove them wrong, then we will discover,
That we are strong, 'cos we have each other.

    So spread your wings reach for the sky,
    I'll take the chance if you will try.
    We'll go together, you and I,
    We'll fly,
    We'll fly...

Take a look around you, have you ever seen a sky so blue?
Can't you hear it calling out to you?
We'll fly......
We'll fly......
