The Andorian Dragon

The Andorian Dragon

How He Helped Me Find You

V1 I hiked through the valley of the Andorian Dragon
He looked through my heart, as he slowly spoke to me
Friend, your cause is worthy, just start to imagine
The face, her smile, a mystery in your dream

V2 So I swam through the waters of the Elysian sea
When I couldn’t swim any further, the Dragon came to me
Friend, take heart, and the Angels shall appear
They’ll lift your spirits, and drive away that fear

Pre-C Not giving up (am, E), I’m not giving in (FM)
I’m fighting until the day (CM), Till I can find a way (GM)

C So I travel the world (CM, G) just to catch a glimpse (FM, G) of what it’s like (CM, G) to remember that bliss (GM, D)

But I never could find,
as I’ve lost my damn mind
a moment that felt right
like when you were in my life

V3 Weary traveler, said the dragon, I’ll be your friend
For as long as you need, and maybe that’s the end But please for now, have some rest
We’ll start again tomorrow, tonight you’re my guest

V4 So I took a load off, I closed my eyes
As I waited for the sandman to take me away
But all I could see was you in the skies
Our fingers touched and you told me to stay

C So I climbed every tree and I scaled every cliff Until I got lost and my ship floated adrift

But I never could find, as I’ve lost my damn mind
a moment that felt right
like when you were in my life

Post-C I’ve been searching for the sign
a message or note divine taking it off the mark
to step out from the dark

V5 It’s been ten years, and the night has come fast
My tired, dear friend, you have known it all along
You’ve seen it in your reflection behind the looking glass
And while the truth stares at you, you can’t accept she’s gone

But I can still fly with you, cried the Andorian Dragon
because you may need me, if you’d still see it through
We’ll discover where the elves hide, and dig down where dwarves dwell
You see, my companion, that maybe I need you too (or as well)

C So we stayed together,
the dragon and me,
Not because we wanted hope
No, we needed company

And even though I’ve never found your eyes and your mind safe and sound I’m living until the moment
that I can fly there, at the end content
