Текст песни King of the Night (Iain Matthews) с переводом

You were like a fast car

Burned up in a race

And sitting on blocks

In this backwater place

Rusted at memories

Bitter and proud

While the race still goes on

Without you somehow

Wasn’t that moonlight

And the starlight just right

And the mercury feelin'

Flooding the road

With your headlights

Like lovers in flight

Too fast to fall

Thought you were king of the night

So empty the bottle

And tell us some more

What do you care

If you’ve heard it before

Price of your victories

Cheaper til now

You were fearless and foolish

Forgotten somehow

Wasn’t that moonlight

And the starlight just right

And the mercury feelin'

Flooding the road

With your headlights

Like lovers in flight

Too fast to fall

Thought you were king of the night

Wasn’t that moonlight

And the starlight just right

And the mercury feelin'

Flooding the road

With your headlights

Like lovers in flight

Too fast to fall

Thought you were king of the night

Wasn’t that moonlight

And the starlight just right

And the mercury feelin'

Flooding the road

With your headlights

Like lovers in flight

You were too fast to fall

Thought you were king of the night
