I was climbing a mountain, asleep in the moonlight The ghost of my Grandpa came to me in a dream As the stars hung above us, he started singing this chorus He laughed loud as heaven and said this to me Take a few chances A few worthy romances Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day Don't listen to the critics Stand up and bear witness Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way We stayed up and talked until the sunrise, of war and love and sorrow He said, "Stop spending all your money on forgiveness of sins. Today is all you're promised, don't trouble with tomorrow." He faded into the forest proudly singing this hymn Take a few chances A few worthy romances Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day Don't listen to the critics Stand up and bear witness Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way I woke up in a fever, surrounded by lightning All my windows were open, and I let the rain flood in SongtexteThe past felt like present, with a future uncertain But I sang like a sparrow, lost in the wind Take a few chances A few worthy romances Go swimming in the ocean on New Year's day Don't listen to the critics Stand up and bear witness Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way Go slay all the dragons that stand in your way Aus Songtexte Mania
