[Verse 1]
See dark shadows on the walls
See the pictures
Some hang, some fall
And the painted faces all in a line

[Pre-Chorus]
And the painted ladies
Yeah, the painted ladies

[Chorus]
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
Mists of time (Ah, ah)
Of the restless kind (Ah, ah)
Through the mists of time
On a magic ride
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
Ah, ah

[Verse 2]
Hear the whisper of the whirlwind
Monster shadows
A light gone dim
Dark horses roam in my sleep
Mystic voices conjure up our dreams
[Pre-Chorus]
And the painted ladies
Yeah, the painted ladies

[Chorus]
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
Mists of time (Ah, ah)
Of the restless kind (Ah, ah)
Through the mists of time
On a magic ride
Through the mists of time

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]
Ah, ah
Ah, ah
And the painted faces (Ah, ah)
Lookin' so divine (Ah, ah)

[Chorus]
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
Mists of time (Ah, ah)
Of the restless kind (Ah, ah)
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
On a magic ride (Ah, ah)
Searchin' for a sign (Ah, ah)
Through the mists of time (Ah, ah)
The mists of time, time (Ah)
