Ancient tales and forgotten songsnTell of former timesnA magic world, where the dragons flynSpreading out their flamesnnIn this place good and evil still fightingnIn between stood a powerful beingnnHe was wearing a black cloaknAnd he was half human justnOne word from his mouthnCould make mountains turn into dustnn[Chorus]nWon't you honor himnWith a thought or a smilenAnd will you tell his talesnTo those you leave behindnWill you cry a tearnFor a time long bygonenThen he will live onn'cause he was the wizardnHe was the onennA tower so deep black, the night skynWas nothing compared to thatnAnd that's where he lived behind the wallsnThat could hold back time itselfnnHe was a seer of past, present and future timesnSo filled with the wisdom that he could convince you with a rhymennHe was wearing a black cloaknAnd he was half human justnOne word from his mouthnCould make mountains turn into dustnn[Chorus]nWon't you honor himnWith a thought or a smilenAnd will you tell his talesnTo those you leave behindnWill you cry a tearnFor a time long bygonenThen he will live onn'cause he was the wizardnHe was the onenn[Guitar & keyboard solo]nn[Outro]n
