01. The Arrival (Intro)

[Instrumental]

04. Night And Rain

On my way and rain was falling down
There were faces in the mirror
Too blind to see they were crying out for me
From the distance (it) gave me shivers

Oh will there be a tomorrow?
I'm losing my mind, full of sorrow

Night and rain
They were calling you
Night and rain
Breaking the spell
Night and rain
Hear they're calling you
Night and rain
Lucifer's opening Hell

We are the innocent
Hunted by the mystic force
The dragonlords are rising from the darkness

Touching your skin
This game we will never win
The unbroken will turned to sadeness

Oh will there be a tomorrow?
I'm losing my mind, full of sorrow

Night and rain
They were calling you
Night and rain
Breaking the spell
Night and rain
Hear they're calling you
Night and rain
Lucifer's opening Hell

Will there be a tomorrow?
I'm losing my mind, full of sorrow

Night and rain
They were calling (you)
Night and rain
Breaking the spell
Night and rain
Hear they're calling (you)
Night and rain
I feel the
Night and rain
Calling you, calling you (there)
Night and rain
Night and rain
Night and rain
I feel the
Night and rain

05. The Masquerade Ball

See the Sun over the rainbow
And the rain comes falling down
Holy nights, the spirit of the temple
They appeared to take the crown

Evil shadows were passing through the air
No one knows if he is there

The bell strikes midnight, the mist begins to rise
The master's calling your name
Soul to soul, the last light of eternity
Lost fools for the game

Winged assassin with power and his grace
The evil force arisen from the grave

It's the Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball

Climb up to the stars
Through the winds of wonder
The evil's in despair
The Masquerade Ball

Dark shadows of the Moon
The Sun had turned to black
Evil eyes are ready to attack

Dust to dust, the mist was fading
The earls have just arrived
Who ever knows who will survive

Get away from the demon dance
And lock on the doors
No place for the holy this midnight romance
No prayers on the floor

It's the Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball

Climb up to the stars
Through the winds of wonder
The evil's in despair

The Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball
The Masquerade Ball
Yeeeah
The Masquerade Ball

It's the Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball

Climb up to the stars
Through the winds of wonder
The evil's in despair

On and on they sailed away
With fire in their eyes
The burning heat began to rise

Eye to eye with broken chains
They left the house of black
Escaping from final attack

Get away from the demon dance
And lock on the doors
No place for the holy this midnight romance
No prayers on the floor

It's the Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball

Climb up to the stars
Through the winds of wonder
The evil's in despair

The Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
There is no tomorrow
On the other side
The Masquerade Ball

Climb up to the stars
Through the winds of wonder
The evil's in despair

The Masquerade Ball
See the wizard fly
The Masquerade Ball
Yeeeah
See'em fly

Evil's in despair
The Masquerade Ball

On and on they sailed away
With fire in their eyes
The burning heat began to rise

On and on they climbed
Through the wind (they ...)
(But soon they turned to ...)

(See the wizard ...)

08. Hot Wheels

They're riding on since '72
All their life on the freeway
They have no fear for nothing at all
They're always doing it their way

Flying with the wind
Chromed steel and dressed in leather
Live to ride, ride to live
Too wild to be tamed forever
Yeah!

Hot wheels, riding on the highway
Hot wheels, 'coloured' riders of the storm
Hot wheels, always doing in their way
Hot wheels, no break from dusk till dawn
Hot wheels

All for one and one for all
The engine roars like thunder
The bike's filled up with gasoline
Exploding with it's power

Flying with the wind
Chromed steel and dressed in leather
(They) live to ride, ride to live
Too wild to ... forever

Hot wheels, riding on the highway
Hot wheels, 'coloured' riders of the storm
Hot wheels, always doing in their way
Hot wheels, no break from dusk till dawn
Hot wheels

Yeeeah!
Hot wheels, riding on the highway
Hot wheels, 'coloured' riders of the storm
Hot wheels, always doing in their way
Hot wheels, no break from dusk till dawn

Hot wheels, riding on the highway
Hot wheels, 'coloured' riders of the storm
Hot wheels, always doing in their way
Hot wheels, no break from dusk till dawn
(Hot wheels)

Hot wheels, all for one, one for all
Hot wheels, can you feel the thunder
(Hot wheels)
Yeah, ride to live
Hot wheels

09. The Temple Of The Holy

Gone with the wind and home is far away from me
There's no one way to see
Haunted by ghosts the evil force of mystery
No way out for you and me

The end of the time, they're the end of the line
(They're) searching for the stars they couldn't find
The end of the time, they're the end of the line
(They're) searching for the stars they couldn't find

Oh, how much longer will they pay
For the sins of yesterday

With their flesh and their bone from dusk until dawn
They are searching for the temple of the holy
Fading and gone on the wings of the storm
They found shelter in the temple of the holy

Don't touch the magic wall, the sign of the crystal ball
See their faces in the mirror
They're the legions of the damned from an unholy land
Bringing fear and reign of terror

The end of the time, (they're) the end of the line
Searching for the stars they couldn't find
The end of the time, (they're) the end of the line
Searching for the stars they couldn't find

Oh, how much longer will they pay
For the sins of yesterday

With their flesh and their bone from dusk until dawn
They are searching for the temple of the holy
Fading and gone on the wings of the storm
Finding shelter in the temple of the holy

Oh, how much longer will they pay
For the sins of yesterday

With their flesh and their bone from dusk until dawn
They are searching for the temple of the holy
Fading and gone on the wings of the storm
Finding shelter in the temple of the holy

With their flesh and their bone from dusk until dawn
They are searching for the temple of the holy
Fading and gone on the wings of the storm
Finding shelter in the temple of the holy
