The unicorn to the dragon said,
|
"Our time is nearly done,
|
And we shall follow the breath of the dead
|
To a world with a crimson sun."
|
"The maids shall mourn your passing then."
|
The dragon spoke in turn.
|
"And new little boys and full-grown men
|
Shall long to see me burn."
|
|
Chorus: Where did the legends come from
|
Before they reached our star
|
And will we be legends when we have gone
|
Where all of our legends are
|
|
The sun came up on an empty hill,
|
And every myth was gone;
|
But all the legends are haunting us still
|
Each night from dusk to dawn.
|
For on the night when the visions fled
|
Beyond the skies of coal,
|
The first man lifted his wondering head,
|
And thought the stars his goal.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
And when we've traveled an endless run
|
Of planets near and far
|
We may chance to discover the crimson sun
|
Where all of our legends are
|
|
Chorus
