Edwin Williamson Poet Lyric

The Dragon's Eye

Take me down the lonesome path where the dark wind blows 
A deathly silence grasping takes control

I'll lead you past the dreaded masks of those who came and lost the game
Where shadows beckon princes to the abyss

So long ago we journeyed to this land of old
Forever we wander black skies...

Old tales be told awarning those who search for gold

The dragon lives in my eyes...

The birds that pass our battered masts rave accursed melody
An omen to the whirlwind who outnumbers

We raged across the bloody seas of death defying mystery
Chanting ancient words against the thunder 

So long ago we journeyed to this land of old
Forever we wander black skies...

Old tales be told awarning those who search for gold

The dragon lives in my eyes...
