Stargazer
Dio Lyrics

High noon, oh I'd sell my soul for water
It's a difficult time, and he's willing to do anything for basic necessities like water.

Nine years worth of breakin' my back
He's been working hard for almost a decade.

There's no sun in the shadow of the wizard
The wizard's shadow is so powerful that it overcasts even the brightest light in the land.

See how he glides, why he's lighter than air
The wizard appears to be light as a feather, effortlessly soaring through the sky.

Oh I see his face
He catches a glimpse of the wizard's face.

Where is your star?
He's asking the wizard where his star is located.

Is it far, is it far, is it far?
He wants to know if the wizard's star is out of reach.

When do we leave?
He's curious to find out when they will depart.

I believe, yes, I believe
He has faith in the wizard and his abilities.

In the heat and the rain
People endure severe weather conditions just to witness the wizard in action.

With whips and chains
This could be a reference to slavery or sacrifice - people suffer in the pursuit of seeing the wizard.

To see him fly
People yearn to witness the wizard's miraculous abilities.

So many die
Many people have lost their lives in their pursuit of the wizard.

We build a tower of stone
People went to great lengths to create a monument for the wizard.

With our flesh and bone
They put in a lot of physical effort and sacrificed their wellbeing to achieve their goal.

But we don't know why
Despite putting in so much effort, they're unsure why exactly they pursued the wizard.

Now where do we go?
After creating the tower, they're unsure of what their next steps should be.

Hot wind, moving fast across the desert
Describes the harsh, unforgiving environment they're in.

We feel that our time has arrived
They believe that this moment of witnessing the wizard is their time.

The world spins, while we put his dream together
While the world continues as usual, they're focused on making the wizard's dream a reality.

A tower of stone to take him straight to the sky
The tower is meant to help the wizard achieve his goal of reaching the sky.

All eyes see the figure of the wizard
Everybody is captivated and watching the wizard.

As he climbs to the top of the world
The wizard intends to ascend to the top of the world.

No sound, as he falls instead of rising
Unexpectedly, the wizard falls instead of going up.

Time standing still, then there's blood on the sand
It seems the world has come to a standstill and the aftermath of the wizard's fall is visible.

Where was your star?
He wants an explanation from the wizard for his fall.

Was it far, was it far
He's reiterating his question and asking if the star was out of reach.

When did we leave?
He's questioning the planning that led to their journey.

We believed, we believed, we believed
Despite everything, they had faith in what they were doing.

Look at my flesh and bone
He points out the physical toll this journey has taken on him.

Now, look, look, look, look
He urges others to take a closer look at what they've achieved.

Look at his tower of stone
He admires the structure they've built.

I see a rainbow rising
He sees a positive outcome from their efforts.

Look there, on the horizon
He points out something in the distance, perhaps the rainbow he mentioned earlier.

Time is standing still
The moment feels like it will last forever.

He gave back my will
He regains his own volition, possibly after being spellbound by the wizard.

Going home
He's ready to go back to his roots.

My eyes are bleeding
His eyes hurt and may be the result of a physical injury.

And my heart is leaving here
He's ready to leave and move on from this episode.

A place called home
The place where he belongs and feels most comfortable.

Take me back
He pleads to be taken home.

Back to my home ooh, ooh, ooh
He's still emphasizing his desire to go back to his roots and where he feels most comfortable.
