    The Magic Of The Wizard's Dream

    by: Rhapsody

    [Iras:]
    In those silent shades of grey
    I will find a place
    to escape the endless night
    to find a new sun
    I know which is my fate
    bond to Erian's old tale
    I'll be always there
    fighting the ancient sin
    Moon shine in this eternal night
    ANGELS ARE CALLING
    FROM DIVINE LOST CRYSTAL REALMS
    RIDING FROM HEAVEN
    FOR THE MAGIC OF THE WIZARD'S DREAM
    In the misty lights of dawn
    between heart and soul
    Elgard's calling for new hope
    to avoid our fall
    I know which is my fate
    bond to Erian's old tale
    I'll be always there
    fighting the ancient sin
    Moon shine in this eternal night
    ANGELS ARE CALLING
    FROM DIVINE LOST CRYSTAL REALMS
    RIDING FROM HEAVEN
