[Originally performed by Rainbow]
High, noon, oh, I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years worth of breakin' my
back
There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
See how he glides, why he's lighter than air
Oh, I see his face
Where is
your star, is it far, is it far, is it far?
When do you leave?
I believe, yes, I believe
In the heat and the rain with wisp and
chains
Just to see him fly so many die
We built a tower of stone with your flesh and bone
Just to see him fly don't know
why
Nowhere do we go
Hot mind moving fast across the desert
We feel that our time has arrived
The world spins while we put
his wing together
A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
All eyes see the figure of the wizard
As he climbs to the
top of the world
No sound as he falls instead of rising
Time standing still then there's no blood on the sand
Oh, I see his
face
Where was you star, was it far, was it far?
When did we leave?
We believed, we believed
In that heat and rain with wips
and chains
To see him fly so many died
We built a tower of stone without flesh and bone
to see him fly but why
It doesn't rain
with all your chains
Did so many die just to see him fly
Look at my flesh and bone, now look, look, look, look
Look at this tower
of stone
I see a rainbow rising, look there on the horizon
And I'm coming home, coming home, coming home
Time is standing
still
He gave me back, my will, oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home, I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding and my heart is weeping
We
still hope, oh
Take my back, he gave me back my will, oh, oh, oh, oh
Going home, I'm going home
My eyes are bleeding and my heart
is weeping
Back to my home, oh, oh...
