Race You To The Top Of The Morning Lyrics - Singles - Secret Garden

Now let's see, Colin, when we left off last night 

The hideous dragon had carried the maid to his cave by moonlight 

He gnashed his teeth and breathed his fire 

The earth quaked and we trembled in fear 

I said someone must save this sweet raven haired maiden 

Though surely the cost will be steep 

So we lads all drew lots, our insides tied in knots 

And I won and the rest went to sleep 

So I picked up my staff 

And I followed the trail of his smoke to the mouth of the cave 

And I bid him come out, yea forsooth, I did shout 

Ye fool dragon be gone or behave 

And then under my breath I uttered a charm said 

To make the worst fiend become kind 

Knaves and knights of dire plights now diminish his sights 

And it worked and the dragon went blind

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

And he charged off the cliff 

Howling mad and he died 

And the maiden accepted my ring 

And then you came along 

And were brave, bold and strong 

And in thanks every night now I sing 

Race you to the top of the morning 

Come sit on my shoulders and ride 

Run and hide, I'll come and find you 

Climb hills to remind you 

I love you, my boy at my side 

Now another foul dragon's appeared, I must leave you 

He's scorching our land with his breath 

From his lair, this one taunts me he dares me, he haunts me 

Once again, we must fight to the death

Would to God I could stay and instead slay your dragon 

This beast who sits hunched on your back 

Would God I could wrench him away from your bed 

Or cut off or tear off his terrible head 

Or breathe out my fire on him 'til he was dead 

Or beg him to spare you and take me instead 

As it is, I must leave you in care of my brother 

The wizard who lives on the hill 

Who has promised his art will soon pierce through the heart 

Of this dragon that's keeping you ill 

And I know that your mother, God bless her 

Would want you to do as he says and grow strong 

And you know that as soon as I can I'll return 

So be brave son and know that I long 

To race you to the top of the morning 

Come sit on my shoulders and ride 

Run and hide, I'll come and find you 

Climb hills to remind you, I love you 

I love you, my boy at my side!
