Best song ever, its so mystical. because dio often sings about egypt and stuff like that, i think this song is about the egyptians building maybe the pyramids, and the "wizard" is the pharao, or one of their big leaders. and the "tower" is a pyramid. an old legend says that some of the pyramid builders saw a giant rainbow the moment that the great pyramid was finshed. that probably inspired "see a rainbow rising, back there, on the horizon"
