The hero
rode a white horse
across the desert
to where his woman was
He'd been riding
for four days
when he saw the tower
where she was locked
In the moonlight
he led his old steel
near the drawbridge
that he crossed
And by the way of a
rope ladder
he tippy-toed
to where his woman was
If I recall
you're the actor
who followed the stars
searching for the lost city of Mars
Hoping time
could heal the scars
knowing faith
have no bars
And if all that knew ya
always said you'd go far
then you're the one
I think you are
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
The madman
climbed the steeple spire
go higher, go higher
said the crowd from down below
But the world's on fire
said the madman from the steeple spire
you're a liar, you're a liar
said the crowd down below
So the madman
climbed the steeple spire
and let a crystal ball tear fall
on the crowd down below
If I recall
you're the actor who tup to the stage
set the world to blame
with your anger and your rage
and with every new lead
you turn to roll in a new page
cleverly concealing
your real age
All that knew ya
where always quite amazed
that you're the one
that can take this braze
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
You're the only one that can say
cried the wizard
our all is love
or all is lost
rode a white horse
across the desert
to where his woman was
He'd been riding
for four days
when he saw the tower
where she was locked
In the moonlight
he led his old steel
near the drawbridge
that he crossed
And by the way of a
rope ladder
he tippy-toed
to where his woman was
If I recall
you're the actor
who followed the stars
searching for the lost city of Mars
Hoping time
could heal the scars
knowing faith
have no bars
And if all that knew ya
always said you'd go far
then you're the one
I think you are
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
Oh are you the hero
Oh are you the madman
The madman

But the world's on fire
