Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
In the power of the dreamer
Lays a better condition of the earth
In the future of all the people
It's the time I can see the dragon's
[Pre-Chorus]
Coming out
To show it to the world now
Heading out for you
The dragon's coming out
To lead you to the power
And everyone will see
[Chorus]
The Year Of The Dragon
Feel the power of the universe, now
You know it's coming true
The Year Of The Dragon
Spitting out the fire, so you can see
The Year Of The Dragon
Feel the power of the universe, now
You know it's coming through
The Year Of The Dragon
Spitting out the fire, so you can see its power!
[Verse 2]
In the levers of the dancer
Lays a higher condition of the heart
For the future is open wide now
Be sure enough and you'll see the dragon's
