- Opening theme song lyrics
Once upon a dream, I think I lived inside a fairy tale
When someone great was lost, when some great void was crossed
And I was tossed in my sleep
And did I see a magic horse called Wildfire, or just a dream?
Wildfire, Wildfire!
Deep within my mind, so tell me what I find, or what might become
If I could go where the dreams come from
If I could go where the dreams run
Wildfire, Wildfire!
