For so long
I have told the tales
The legends and lies
And prophecies to fill
To me, did they come
To show them the path
And where to go
But I never know
High in this tower
I have said the prayers
Spoke the ancient words
As they danced into the air
Then would close my eyes
Waiting for a sign
That they were true
What more to do
Open wide the dragon's maw
Hoisting dark and light
Arise now from the sea
And soar into the night
So the legends said
And now do my eyes see
I awake upon the hour
Of destiny
Holding on to faith
Like wishing on a dream
Reciting what was passed on
From stories incomplete
In cycles and waves
Hoping I could save
Myself from fear
That none would hear
Open wide the dragon's maw
Hoisting dark and light
Arise now from the sea
And soar into the night
So the legends said
And now do my eyes see
I awake upon the hour
Of destiny
Now the sky has opened up
Find your place among the stars
Fly beyond the atmosphere
A dream becoming real
A hope
A wish
