Текст песни Close to the Wire (The Kinks) с переводом

A hopeful adventure

Got missionary ways

Could start in the jungle

Feel this way

Search for an answer

Over land and over sea

All the mountains

Of promised opportunities

I cried out but you were lost

In a corporate position

So moneys the solution

Curing all that ails the nation

But what about the hearts of man

The spiritual needs

Im staring at the starlight

And I just cant quite believe

That im Lost in the fire

So close to the wire

Got to survive

So close to the wire

The soul needs attention

Like the body needs to breath

But banks want investment

So who are we Cultures are dying

But gold reserves are safe

Cant live in this jungle

But cant escape

Whatever happened

To the dreams we shared together

A taste of wine

A moonlight song that lasts forever

Feel the expectation

Written in the ways

Each move of a man give away

You look good to me Sat in your ministry position

An image for the masses

Making serious decisions

Talk about, sham about

For all the world to see

Your rhetorics a quiz game

And a mystery to me So close to the wire
