[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...
