Текст песни Charlie's Sky (Icehouse) с переводом

Charlie was just a boy

Laid back in an open field and

Followed those distant wings

Around in lazy circles

«When are they gonna come down?» he said

«Or are they watching over

Me here on the ground instead?»

«Or maybe they just fly forever?»

You dont forget about heroes

You simply shake their hands

Then you watch them fly away

One night there`s a new star

Up in Charlie`s sky

First raid on the jungle night

Flying low in the radio silence

One eye on the gunners sight

One eye on the waiting target

It`s not a matter of wrong or right

You asked no questions, `cause you found no answers

God knows when you have to fight

You say a prayer and you take your chances

You don`t forget about heroes

You simply shake their hands

Then you watch them wave goodbye

One night there`s a new star

Up in Charlie`s sky

You don`t forget about heroes

Like any big wild bird

You have to let them fly away

no one can reach them

Up in Charlie`s sky

Somewhere deep in the mountains

Somewhere wide of the landing lights

Missing in action

But I know he made it home

Home alright
