James – Why So Close (orchestral version) Lyrics

Alternative

Why so close
Big boys in black hats
Cowboys with white guns
White guns shoot blue white
Blue white baptism
No buffaloes
No Indians
No more buffaloes
Red sky is falling
Blue blood no stalling
White heat will strip you
No time to run far

Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why so close
Ivan's built a wall of lead 'round his house
Nobody can get in or out
Running out of food for ammunition
Frightened of the darkness, Sending out scouts
Wayne's got a wall, that's much more subtle
Wore headphones since he was born
Watches Ivan through dark glasses
Hand on his gun, waiting for the storm
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why stand the fire so close
Why so close
