There are dragons in the mountains, love
There are dragons in the trees;
There are dragons under silver stars
And sailing stormy seas.
Close your eyes, my darling girl,
Close your eyes, my weary child,
For the world is more than you can see
Oh, the world is strange and wild.
There are unicorns with silver feet
Walking ‘cross the shining sands
There are unicorns with spiraled horn
In dark and hidden lands.
Close your eyes, my darling girl,
Close your eyes, my weary child,
For the world is more than you can see
Oh, the world is strange and wild.
There are rocket ships up on the moon,
There are ships that go to Mars.
Sweet ships that sail far from this Earth;
They search for distant stars.
Close your eyes, my darling girl,
Close your eyes, my weary child,
For the world is more than you can see
Oh, the world is strange and wild.
There are dragons in the mountains, love
There are dragons in the trees;
There are dragons under silver stars
And sailing stormy seas.
