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 we leave I believe, yes, I believe
In the heat and the rain With whips and chains Just to see him fly So many die
We built a tower of stone With our flesh and bone Just to see him fly Don't know why
Now where do we go
Hot wind 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 Oh I see his face
Where is your star It is far, is it far, is it far When do we leave, yeah I believe, I believe
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 blood on the sand Oh I see his face
Where was your star Was it far, was it far When did we leave We believe, we believe, we believe
In the heat and rain With whips and chains To see him fly So many die We built a tower of stone With out flesh and bone To see him fly But why, it don't rain With all our 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, I'm 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, we still hope, oh Take me 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 We still hope, we still hope, oh
Take me back, take me back Back to my home, oh, oh...
