[00:05.35]===================
[00:06.07]===================
[00:17.42]She is hoping for an adventure
[00:20.29]Got missionary ways
[00:22.88]Could start in the jungle
[00:25.04]Feel this way
[00:30.05]Search for an answer
[00:38.34]Over land and over sea
[00:40.72]All the mountains of promised opportunities
[00:49.68]I cried out but you were lost
[00:52.13]In a corporate position
[00:54.05]So money's the solution
[00:56.15]Curing all that ails the nation
[00:58.64]But what about the hearts of man
[01:00.86]The spiritual needs
[01:03.08]I'm staring at the starlight
[01:05.23]And I just can't quite believe
[01:07.76]That I'm..
[01:07.91]===================
[01:08.01]Lost in the fire
[01:12.16]So close to the wire
[01:16.73]Got to survive
[01:21.35]So close to the wire
[01:32.40]===================
[01:34.68]The soul needs attention
[01:37.03]Like the body needs to breath
[01:39.16]But banks want investment
[01:41.51]So who are we
[01:45.35]Cultures are dying
[01:54.82]But gold reserves are safe
[01:57.14]Can't live in this jungle
[01:59.44]But can't escape
[02:08.43]Whatever happened
[02:12.57]To the dreams we shared together
[02:17.85]A taste of wine
[02:21.31]A moonlight song that lasts forever
[02:26.61]=================
[02:27.61]Lost in the fire
[02:30.69]So close to the wire
[02:34.83]Got to survive
[02:40.54]So close to the wire
[02:44.94]===================
[02:49.14]Feel the expectation
[03:00.70]Written in the ways
[03:03.12]Each move of a man give away
[03:09.11]You look good to me
[03:13.70]Sat in your ministry position
[03:16.42]An image for the masses
[03:18.70]Making serious decisions
[03:21.13]Talk about, sham about
[03:23.43]For all the world to see
[03:25.32]Your rhetoric's a quiz game
[03:28.13]And a mystery to me
[03:30.36]Cos I lost in the fire
[03:34.37]So close to the wire
[03:39.38]Got to survive
[03:43.01]So close to the wire
[03:48.83]===================
[03:51.80]So close to the wire.....
