DRAGONS AND BEARS

Dragons And Bears

A repost from August 2016, edited and added Music to it.

My little one let's go now
It's time, take your bear
Call the others, there's snow
outside. Make sure you wear
the coat I gave you?
You know where we go to?
                  Down there is the forest
                  Hold your bear real close
                  From there we go west
                  To the village I chose
                  Follow that road there
                  It leads you everywhere
                                         But back to this place
                                         My sweet boy, my dragon
                                         Haunts me, for me it's a race
                                         Only when he is gone
                                         Can I be really free
                                         Can you be with me
                           My little one, go now
                           The dragon on my neck
                           Makes me far too slow,
                           He holds me back
                           Whatever you do
                           Remember I love you
       Your bear will protect you
       Pretend he is me
       Pretend I'm behind you
       I'll always be
       No dragon can keep me
       From you, Don't you see?
                You live in my heart little boy,
                My brother, my friend
                You gave me so much joy
                Your laughter did mend
                My brokenness to almost whole
                You'll live forever in my soul.
