Heartbeat to Heartbeat

His scales shone bright, like stars in the night He said, "I'll protect you, with all of my might." He almost started to believe the tales Of dragons being fierce, and love being frail Maybe it's 'cause he's grown a little wiser Maybe it's all the love he's acquired He'd like to think it's how she gazes at his heart And how he sees their future, a brand new start He doesn't roar a word But still, she takes his gentle breath and steals the fears she's known There she goes, finding solace in his loving hold Heartbeat to heartbeat, a love so true Together they'll rise, in all they do They say that dragons don't love this way But don't let them ruin their gentle, loving sway 'Cause when she whispers low and tells him he's home And looks into his fiery eyes He is her haven, her only place to roam It's heartbeat to heartbeat, mmm It's heartbeat to heartbeat When they soar, they glide on wings of fire But then they dive and feel the love that's their desire They lose themselves in a world of tender touch They won't be bound by any mortal clutch He doesn't roar a word But still, she takes his gentle breath and steals the fears she's known There she goes, finding solace in his loving hold Heartbeat to heartbeat, a love so true Together they'll rise, in all they do They say that dragons don't love this way But don't let them ruin their gentle, loving sway
