U2 - With Or Without You Lyrics

U2 - With Or Without You Video

See the stone set in your eyes

See the thorn twist in your side

I wait for you

Sleight of hand and twist of fate

On a bed of nails she makes me wait

And I wait without you

 

With or without you

With or without you

 

Through the storm, we reach the shore

You give it all but I want more

And I'm waiting for you

 

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live with or without you

 

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give, and you give

And you give yourself away

 

My hands are tied, my body bruised

She's got me with nothing to win

And nothing left to lose

 

And you give yourself away

And you give yourself away

And you give, and you give

And you give yourself away

 

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

 

With or without you

With or without you

I can't live

With or without you

With or without you

U2 - The Sweetest Thing Lyrics

U2 - The Sweetest Thing Video

Haaaa haa a, Oooh Ooh

 

My love she throws me like a rubber ball

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

She won't catch me or break my fall

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Baby's got blue skies up ahead

But in this I'm a rain cloud

You know she wants a dry kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

 

I'm losing you

I'm losing you

Ain't love the sweetest thing

 

I wanted to run but she made me crawl

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Eternal fire, she turned me to straw

Oh oh, the sweetest thing

I know I got black eyes

But they burn so brightly for her

This is a blind kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

 

I'm losing you

Whoa haaa, I'm losing you

Ain't love the sweetest thing

 

Ain't love the sweetest thing

Ain't love the sweetest thing

Ain't love the sweetest thing

 

Ahhhh haaa haaaa

Ahhhh haaa haaaa

 

Blue-eyed boy meets a brown-eyed girl

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

You can sew it up but you still see the tear

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

Baby's got blue skies up ahead

But in this I'm a rain cloud

Ours is a stormy kind of love

Oh oh oh, the sweetest thing

 

Do do do do, do do do do

Do do do do, do do do do

Do do do do, do do do do

Do do do do, do do do do

Do do do do, do do do do

The sweetest thing

Do do do do, do do do do

 

Ooh Ooh The Sweetest Thing (Bono)

U2 - Last Night On Earth Lyrics

U2 - Last Night On Earth Video

(What the fear calls down, stops the car)

(As it feels like rage)

(She's back on the street)

(But it swings so far away)

 

She feels the ground is giving way

But she thinks we're better off that way

The more you take, the less you feel

The less you know, the more you believe

The more you have, the more it takes today

 

CHORUS

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

Well she don't care what it's worth

She's living like it's the last night on Earth

The last night on Earth

 

She's not waiting on a saviour to come (How's-ya classy)

She's at the bus-stop with News of the World and the Sun

Sun, here it comes

She's not waiting for anyone

 

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

Well she don't care what it's worth

She's living like it's the last night on Earth

The last night on Earth

 

Clock tells her that time is slipping (slipping away)

Tear drop sunshine (slip slide)

Two sides to one feels missing (too heavy)

Something she might be missing (slipping away)

World turns and we get dizzy (the world turns

Spinning for you (and we get dizzy)

The way it's spinning for me (slipping away)

 

She's living, living next week now

You know she's going to pay it back somehow

She hasn't been to bed in a week

She'll be dead soon, then she'll sleep

 

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

You got to give it away (you got to give it away)

Well she don't care what it's worth

She's living like it's the last night on Earth

The last night on Earth

 

Last night on Earth

Last night on Earth

Last night

U2 - Heartland Lyrics

U2 - Heartland Video

See the sun rise over her skin

Don't change it

See the sun rise over her skin

Dawn changes everything

Everything

And the delta sun

Burns bright and violet

 

Mississippi and the cotton wool heat

Sixty-six a highway speaks

Of deserts dry

Of cool green valleys

Gold and silver veins

Of the shining cities

 

In this heartland

In this heartland soil

In this heartland

Heaven knows this is a heartland

Heartland...heartland

 

See the sun rise over her skin

She feels like water in my hand

Freeway like a river cuts through this land

Into the side of love

Like a burning spear

And the poison rain

Brings a flood of fear

Through the ghost-ranch hills

Death valley waters

In the towers of steel

Belief goes on and on

 

In this heartland

In this heartland soil

In this heartland

Heaven knows this is a heartland

Heartland...heaven knows this is a heartland

Heartland...heartland

Heartland...heaven's day here in the heartland

Heart...

U2 - Kite Lyrics

U2 - Kite Video

Something

Is about to give

I can feel it coming

I think I know what it is

 

I'm not afraid to die

I'm not afraid to live

And when I'm flat on my back

I hope to feel like I did

 

And hardness

It sets in

You need some protection

The thinner the skin

 

I want you to know

That you don't need me anymore

I want you to know

You don't need anyone

Or anything at all

 

Who's to say where the wind will take you

Who's to say what it is will break you

I don't know

Which way the wind will blow

 

Who's to know when the time has come around

Don't want to see you cry

I know that this is not goodbye

 

It's somewhere I can taste the salty sea

There's a kite blowing out of control on the breeze

I wonder what's gonna happen to you

You wonder what has happened to me

 

I'm a man

I'm not a child

A man who sees

The shadow behind your eyes

 

Who's to say where the wind will take you

Who's to say what it is will break you

I don't know

Where the wind will blow

 

Who's to know when the time has come around

I don't want to see you cry

I know that this is not goodbye

 

Did I waste it

Not so much I couldn't taste it

Life should be fragrant

Rooftop to the basement

 

The last of the rocks stars

When hip-hop drove the big cars

In the time when new media

Was the big idea

What was the big idea

U2 - Surrender Lyrics

U2 - Surrender Video

Oh, the city's alight with lovers and lies

And bright blue eyes.

Oh, the city is bright, it's brighter than day tonight.

(Surrender, surrender)

(Surrender, surrender)

 

Sadie said she couldn't work out what it was all about

And so she let go.

Now Sadie's on the street and the people she meets you know.

 

She tried to be a good girl and a good wife

Raise a good family

Lead a good life

It's not good enough

She got herself up on the 48th floor

Gotta find out

Find out what she's living for.

 

Oh, the city's afire

A passionate flame that will make me the same.

Oh, the city's desire to take me for more and more.

It's in the street gettin' under my feet

It's in the air, it's everywhere I look for you.

It's in the things that I do and say

And it I wanna live I gotta die to myself someday.

U2 - Walk On Lyrics

U2 - Walk On Video

And love is not the easy thing

The only baggage that you can bring

Love is not the easy thing

The only baggage you can bring

Is all that you can't leave behind...

 

And if the darkness is to keep us apart

And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off

And if your glass heart should crack,

For a second you turn back

Oh no, be strong

 

Oh, oh

Walk on, walk on

What you got, they can't steal it

No, they can't even feel it

Walk on, walk on

Stay safe tonight

 

You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been

A place that has to be believed, to be seen

You could have flown away

A singing bird in an open cage

Who will only fly, only fly, for freedom

 

Oh, oh

Walk on, walk on

What you got, you can't deny it

Can't sell it, or buy it

Walk on, walk on

Stay safe tonight

 

And I know it aches

If your heart breaks

It can only take so much

 

Walk on

Walk on

 

Home...

Hard to know what it is, if you never had one

Home...

I can't say where it is, but I know I'm going

Home...

That's where the heart is

 

And I know it aches

And your heart, it breaks

It can only take so much

 

Walk on

 

(Hoooo...)

Leave it behind

You've got to leave it behind

 

All that you fashion

All that you make

All that you build

All that you break

All that you measure

All that you steal

All this you can't leave behind

All that you reason (It's only time)

(And i'll never fill up all my mind)

 

All that you sense

All that you scheme

All that you dress-up

All that you've seen

All you create

All that you wreck

All that you hate

U2 - Elevation Lyrics

U2 - Elevation Video

Yeah, yeah

 

High, higher than the sun

You shoot me from a gun

I need you to elevate me here

At the corner of your lips

As the orbit of your hips

Eclipse, you elevate my soul

 

I've got no self-control

Been living like a mole now

Going down, excavation

I and I in the sky

You make me feel like I can fly so high

Elevation

 

A star lit up like a cigar

Strung out like a guitar

Maybe you could educate my mind

Explain all these controls

I can't sing but I've got soul

The goal is elevation

 

A mole, digging in a hole

Digging up my soul now

Going down, excavation

I and I in the sky

You make me feel like I can fly so high

Elevation

 

Love, lift me out of these blues

Won't you tell me something true

I believe in you

 

A mole, digging in a hole

Digging up my soul now

Going down, excavation

I and I in the sky

You make me feel like I can fly so high

Elevation

 

Elevation

Elevation

Elevation

U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close) Lyrics

U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close) Video

Green light, 7-Eleven

You stop in for a pack of cigarettes

You don't smoke, don't even want to

Hey now, check your change

Dressed up like a car crash

The wheels are turning but you're upside down

You say when he hits you you don't mind

Because when he hurts you you feel alive

Oh now, is that what it is

 

Red light, grey morning

You stumble out of a hole in the ground

A vampire or a victim

It depends on who's around

You used to stay up to watch the adverts

You could lip-synch to the talk shows

And if you look, you look through me

And when you talk it's not to me

And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

 

If I could stay, then the night would give you up

Stay, and the day would keep its trust

Stay, and the night would be enough

 

Faraway, so close up with the static and the radio

With satellite television you can go anywhere

Miami, New Orleans, London, Belfast and Berlin

 

And if you listen I can't call

And if you jump, you just might fall

And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay then the night would give you up

Stay then the day would keep its trust

Stay with the demons you drowned

Stay with the spirit I found

Stay and the night would be enough

 

Three o'clock in the morning

It's quiet and there's no one around

Just the bang and the clatter as an angel runs to ground

Just the bang and the clatter as an angel hits the ground

U2 - Miss Sarajevo Lyrics

U2 - Miss Sarajevo Video

Is there a time for keeping your distance

A time to turn your eyes away?

Is there a time for keeping your head down

For getting on with your day?

 

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick

A time for cutting hair?

Is there a time for high street shopping

To find the right dress to wear?

 

Here she comes (Ooh-hoo)

Heads turn around

Here she comes

To take her crown

 

Is there a time to run for cover

A time for kiss and tell?

Is there a time for different colours

Different names you find it hard to spell?

 

Is there a time for first communion

A time for East 17?

Is there a time to turn to Mecca?

Is there time to be a beauty queen?

 

Here she comes (Ooh-hoo)

Beauty plays the clown

Here she comes

Surreal in her crown

 

Dici che il fiume

Trova la via al mare

E come il fiume

Giungerai a me

Oltre i confini

E le terre assetate

Dici che come fiume

Come fiume

L'amore giunger

L'amore

E non so pi pregare

E nell'amore non so pi sperare

E quell'amore non so pi aspettare

Is there a time for tying ribbons

A time for Christmas trees?

Is there a time for laying tables?

And the night is set to freeze
