"The Dragon Song" is a song that is heard in the 2016 remake film of Pete's Dragon, performed by singer-songwriter Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy.[1]

Background[]

The song is first heard at the opening where the town of Millhaven is introduced just as it features Jack Magary's first appearance in the film as Mr. Meacham narrates the legend about Elliot, an elusive dragon, in front of some children. Later in the film, Natalie Magary sings a fragment of the song to Pete after Pete tells Natalie about his dragon friend Elliot which reminds Natalie of the song about Elliot her father used to sing to her. A "revisited" version of the song is heard during the credits.

Lyrics[]

Go north, go north with wings on your feet
Go north with the wind where the three rivers meet
There's a clearing of sorts in the circle of trees
Where the wild constellations shine one, two, and three

Look all around you and see
Deep in the forest, there dragons will be

They come from the earth, yes, they come from the stone
The icy cold north, that's where they call home
Go where the mountain kisses the sea
Better be brave, far braver than me

Look all around you and see
Deep in the forest, there dragons will be

If a dragon should find you, you might ought to run
No one has lived through such a run in, not one
So if you hear a roar, goodness sake, leave them be
Up where you find them wild and free

Look all around you and see
Deep in the forest, there dragons will be
Look all around you, you won't find me
