In oriental legend, they tell the story of the Dragon Prince, who fell in love with a kind & beautiful mortal woman. The Gods, on seeing their forbidden love, banished them high into the heavens. As far apart, as their love was strong...

I'VE BEEN ALONE FOR SO LONG, WITHOUT ANYONE
WITHOUT SEEING SUN, TILL I SAW YOU
AND WITH THESE STARS, I'LL WAIT ALONE
ABANDONED FAR, FROM MY HOME - THE NIGHTS
ARE LONG - BUT STILL I WAIT HERE FOR YOU

bridge...
UNTIL THEN, I'LL HAVE TO WAIT A, YEAR LESS
ONE DAY - TO BE WITH YOU, TO BE WITH YOU

(spoken)
But the Gods, also seeing the strength of their love, allowed them to be together, for only one day, of each year. And on that day, the people celebrate, love & faith, hope & dreams. All things come true, if you just believe...

chorus...
THOUGH THE WINDS MAY TAKE ME, TO WHAT THEY'LL FIND
YOU'LL NOT BE FORSAKEN, FOR I'LL RETURN IN TIME
TO CARRESS & CARE FOR, THE ONE THING I HOLD DEAR
THOUGH WE'RE HELD AT DISTANCE, STILL WE ARE SO NEAR
ALL WITHIN TIME, ALL WITHIN TIME, ALL WITHIN TIME...

(spoken)
So on the seventh day, of the seventh month, of every year, the people give thanks for all that they have. Just like the Dragon Prince & his bride. For to be together for only one day each year, is still far better off, than being alone for eternity...
