[Verse 1] Under the granite, under the rails Under the stations, the tunnels, the stairs Folded in darkness, out of the light Something enormous is sleeping tonight Orange trains thunder over his head Thousands of footsteps pass over his bed Harbour lights shimmer, the winter streets glow Nobody knows what is sleeping below [Chorus] Di di di di dii dii dii He sleeps under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da Dragon Di di di di dii dii dii He sleeps under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da Dragon, don’t wake up [Verse 2] Footsteps and heartbeats come through the stone Thousands of strangers, but one voice is known An old man is speaking, unhurried and low The dragon has heard him somewhere long ago Then voices run together, a river of sound Names turn to static and wash underground Laughter and sorrow blur into the deep But that one old voice moves under his sleep [Chorus] Di di di di dii dii dii He sleeps under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da Dragon Di di di di dii dii dii He sleeps under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da Dragon, don’t wake up [Verse 3] His breathing stops and the tunnel goes still Dust slips down from the concrete sill One golden eye opens slow in the black Fluorescent lights stare silently back He sees the rails and the walls overhead The place where he’s slept while the centuries fled One claw shifts softly, the old stones groan He watches the tunnel, awake and unknown [Bridge] One breath in One breath out A train passes over Then another Warm air moves Through the stone He listens He waits [Chorus] Di di di di dii dii dii He lives under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da Dragon Di di di di dii dii dii He lives under Helsinki Da da da da daa daa da [Outro] [THUM]
