High noon
Oh I'd sell my soul for water
Nine years worth of breakin my back
Theres 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
Dont 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
Is it far, is it far, is it far
When do we leave, hey
I believe, I believe
*
In the heat and the rain
With whips and chains
Just to see him fly
Too many die
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly
But we dont know why
Oh, now where do we go
*
(long instrumental)
*
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 theres blood on the sand
Oh I see his face
*
Where was your star
Was it far, was it far
When did we leave
We believed, we believed, we believed
*
In heat and rain
With whips and chains
To see him fly
So many died
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly
*
But why, in all the 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
I'm 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 leaving
But we still hope, we still hope,
ooooh
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 leaving
But we still hope, we still hope,
ooooh
*
Take me back, take me back
Back to my home,
oh, oh...

I hope I got all the lyrics right... I listened to the song a lot while editing and it is 8:27 long! lol...
Not sure if the heart is "leading", "leaving" or as most say "weeping"... but listening closely I do not believe it is weeping... doesn't sound right to me. Anyway, this is as close as I could get it lol...
