[Intro]
No wing in the thunder
No flame in the deep
The mountains remember
When dragons sleep

[Verse]
We came to the valley of ancient scales
Where the wind moved slow through the broken trails
Their eyes were closed like eclipsed suns
Their claws lay still on the frozen stones
Once they were fire across the dawn
Now even their dreams were nearly gone
The priest of the flame knelt in the snow
And whispered names from long ago

[Pre-Chorus]
Every star that falls from heaven
Takes a breath from earth below
If the crown is lost forever
All the old fires turn to snow

[Chorus]
When dragons sleep
Who will guard the sky
Who will lift the mountains
Who will teach the young to fly
When dragons sleep
Still our oath is deep
We will bring the dawn again
And wake them from the deep

[Verse]
Arian touched the sleeping hide
And saw red comets trapped inside
Elyra sang with a trembling tone
But the magic failed in the heart of stone
Seralyne raised her shattered shield
And swore no more would the darkness yield
The priest said only the crown can pour
Life through the stars forevermore

[Pre-Chorus]
Then a dragon's dream surrounded us
With a vision made of flame
A thief upon a crystal stair
And a shadow without name

[Chorus]
When dragons sleep
Who will guard the sky
Who will lift the mountains
Who will teach the young to fly
When dragons sleep
Still our oath is deep
We will bring the dawn again
And wake them from the deep

[Solo]

[Bridge]
Old fire
Hold fast
This night
Will pass
Great wings
Dream on
We ride
Till dawn

[Chorus]
When dragons sleep
Who will guard the sky
Who will lift the mountains
Who will teach the young to fly
When dragons sleep
Still our oath is deep
We will bring the dawn again
And wake them from the deep

[Outro]
No wing in the thunder
But hope we shall keep
Till fire returns
When dragons sleep
