The Morning of the Dragon Original London Cast of Miss Saigon

[FIRST GROUP]
On silent feet it came
Breathing a sheet of flame, it came
Closing in on its rightful prey
Burning a hundred years away
The morning of the dragon
Truth lit up the street
The tiger we were stalking
Walked on paper feet
And in the clear white heat of dawn
Was gone

[FIRST GROUP & SECOND GROUP]
From every door they came (Victory)
These children born of war, they came (Victory)
Sharing a secret word which they (Victory)
Waited a hundred years to say (The morning of the dragon)
(All the walls fell down) The morning of the dragon
Truth lit up the street (Brother greeted brother)
The tiger we were stalking walked on paper feet (In a sudden light)
(And the endless night) And in the clear white heat of dawn

[FIRST & SECOND GROUPS]
Was gone

[FIRST GROUP, SECOND GROUP & THIRD GROUP]
On silent feet it came (Victory)
Breathing a sheet of flame it came (Victory) (May all our children learn)
Closing in on its rightful prey (Victory) (The tide of right)
Burning a hundred years away (Will turn)
