I see your rainbow rising...

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 the whips and chains
To see him fly
So many die
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
Just to see him fly
But 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 dream 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 the whips and chains
Just to see him fly
Too many die
We built a tower of stone
With our flesh and bone
To see him fly
But we don't know why
Ooh, now where do we go

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 believed, we believed, we believed

In heat and rain
With the 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 the chains
Did so many die
Just to see him fly

Look at my flesh and bone
Now, look, look, look, look,
Look at the tower of stone
I see your rainbow rising
Look there, on the horizon oh no, who's rising
And I'm coming home, I'm coming home, I'm coming home

Time is standing still
You, give back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh
Going home
I'm going home

My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is lead ahead
But it's not home
But it's not home
Ooh

Take me back
You, give me back my will
Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Going home
I'm going home

My eyes are bleeding
And my heart is lead ahead
But it's not home
But it's not home

Take me back, take me back
Back to my home ooh, ooh, ooh

→ ΟΙ ΕΙΚΟΝΕΣ: Φωτογραφίες του Ken Rotberg στην Νότια Φλόριντα που απεικονίζουν το σπάνιο καιρικό φαινόμενο, το οποίο είναι γνωστό ως "ουράνιο τόξο της φωτιάς".

Ουσιαστικά δεν πρόκειται ούτε για ουράνιο τόξο, ούτε για φωτιά αλλά για ιριδίζοντα σύννεφα κι είναι ένα σχετικά σπάνιο φαινόμενο που προκαλείται από τα σύννεφα και σταγονίδια νερού σχεδόν ομοιόμορφα σε μέγεθος σύμφωνα με την NASA.

Αυτά τα σύννεφα είναι παρόμοια και χωρίζονται σε διαφορετικά μήκη κύματος ή χρωμάτων που ομοιάζουν με εκείνα του ουράνιου τόξου.
