Lyrics Dragons - Drew Holcomb & The Neighbors

I was climbin' a mountain
Asleep in the moonlight
Ghost of my grandpa
Came to me in a dream
'Cause the stars hung above us
He started singing this chorus
Laughed loud as hell
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 till 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"
And I woke up in a fever, surrounded by lightening
All my windows were open, and I let the rain flood in
The past felt like the present
The 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
