lirik lagu race you to the top of the morning – the secret garden – original london cast
[archibald, spoken]
now, let’s see. when we left off last night, the hideous dragon had carried the maid to his cave by moonlight. he gnashed his t–th, breathed his fire, the earth trembled and quaked with fear
ah, i said
[sung]
someone must save this sweet raven-haired maiden
though surely the cost will be dear
so we lads all drew lots
our insides tied in knots
and i won, and the rest disappeared
so, i picked up my staff
and i followed the trail of his smoke
to the mouth of the cave
and i bad him come out
yea, forsooth, i did shout
ye fool dragon, be gone or behave!
and then under my breath
i uttered a charm
said to make the worst fiend become kind
knaves and knights of dire plights
now diminish his sights!
and it worked and the dragon went blind
and he charged off the cliff
howling mad and he died
and the maiden accepted my ring
then a son came along
who was brave, bold and strong
and in thanks, every night now i sing:
race you to the top of the morning
come, sit on my shoulders and ride
run and hide, i’ll come and find you
climb hills to remind you
i love you, my boy at my side
now, another foul dragon’s appeared
i must leave you
he’s scorching our land with his breath
from his lair, this one taunts me
he dares me, he haunts me
once again, we must fight to the death
would to god i could stay and instead slay your dragon
this beast who sits hunched on your back
would to god i could wrench him away from your bed
or cut off or tear off his terrible head
could breathe out my fire on him
’till he was dead
or beg him to spare you and take me instead!
as it is i must leave you in care of my brother
the wizard who lives on the hill
who has promised his art
will soon pierce through the heart
of this dragon that’s keeping you ill
and i know that your mother, god bless her
would want you to do as he says and grow strong
and you know that as soon as i can, i’ll return
so be brave, son and know that i long
to race you to the top of the morning
come, sit on my shoulders and ride
run and hide, i’ll come and find you
climb hills to remind you
i love you
i love you, my boy at my side
