Tears of the Dragon (2001 Remastered Version) Lyrics

For too long now, there were secrets in my mind
For too long now, there were things I should have said
In the darkness...I was stumbling for the door
To find a reason - to find the time, the place, the hourWaiting for the winter sun, and the cold light of day
The misty ghosts of childhood fears
The pressure is building, and I can't stay awayI throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for meWhere I was, I had wings that couldn't fly
Where I was, I had tears I couldn't cry
My emotions frozen in an icy lake
I couldn't feel them until the ice began to breakI have no power over this, you know I'm afraid
The walls I built are crumbling
The water is moving, I'm slipping away...I throw myself into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face the fear I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for meSlowly I awake, slowly I rise
The walls I built are crumbling

The water is moving, I'm slipping away...I throw (I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for meI throw (I throw)
Myself (myself)
Into the sea
Release the wave, let it wash over me
To face (to face)
The fear (the fear)
I once believed
The tears of the dragon, for you and for me
