Songtekst
In the land of make believe
the characters are brought to grief
but a friend in need's a friend indeed
it's been said long time ago
it applies to friend and foe
a pal like Blackstar's oh so hard to find
The creatures with movable wings to fly
and glow in the darkest weather
are comming down here out from right
The mystic warriors of change
in times when you doubt whether
with his glowing power sword
is Blackstar on your side
Where he comes from no one knows
it's a mystery where he goes
cause he's after bringing joy and good
He transforms from man to beast
but at night you feel at ease
he has always been misunderstood
The creatures with movable wings to fly
and glow in the darkest weather
are comming down here out from right
The creatures with movable wings to fly
and glow in the darkest weather
are comming down here out from right
