PLEASE
(Just stop fighting...please)
(Let's talk)
(Please...)
So you never knew love
Until you crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted
Unil you had someone slap your face
And you never felt alive
Until you'd almost wasted away
You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest ass
At the top of the class
Your flying colors
Your family tree
And all your lessons in history
Please...please...please...
Get up off your knees, now
Please...please...please...
Leave it out...
So you never knew
How low you'd stoop to make that call
And you never knew
What was on the ground until they made you crawl
So you never knew
That the heaven you keep, you stole
Your Catholic blues
Your convent shoes
Your stick-on tattoos
Now they're making the news
Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car
Please...please...please...
Get up off your knees, now
Please...please...please...
Leave it out...
'Cause love is big
And love is tough
But love is not
What you're thinking of
September
Streets capsizing
Spilling over
Down the drain
Shards of glass
Splinters like rain
But you could only feel
Your own pain
October
Talk getting nowhere
November
December
Remember
Are we just starting again
Please...please...please...
Get up off your knees, now
Please...
Please...
'Cause love is big
Is bigger than us
But love is not
What you're thinking of
It's what lovers deal
It's what lovers steal
You know I've found it hard to receive
'Cause you my love
I could never believe
Please...please...please...
Get up off your knees, now
Please...please...please...
Get up off your knees, now
Please...
Please...
Please...
I want to run
I want to hide
Yeah, I want to tear down the walls
That hold me tonight
I want to break through
Into a new frame
Where the streets have no name
I want to feel sunlight on my face
Yeah, I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the city's sweet rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still we're building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
The city's a flood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still we're building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Ohhh....Ohhh...Ohhh...
Ohhh..Oh...
Ohhh....Ohhh...Ohhh...
Ohhh..Oh...
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still we're building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Bono: "No, we don't have to."
Then there will be no time or sorrow
Then will there be no time of shame
Then there will
Then there will be
Then there will be no time
Then there will be no time
Then there will be no time...no time
Then there will be no time
Then there will be no time
No
See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I'll wait for you
Sleight of hand and a twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I'm waiting for 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
Yeah, 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's bruised, and she 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
Bono: "Thank you. Thanks for coming out and seeing us play. Goodnight, God bless you."
Summer stretching on the grass
Summer dresses pass
In the shade of a willow tree
Creeps a crawling over me
Over me and over you
Stuck together with God's glue
It's going to get stickier too
It's been a long hot summer
Let's get under cover
Don't try too hard to think
Don't think at all
You're not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you stepped back inside
I'm not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who's happy to go blind
There's an insect in your ear
If you scratch it won't disappear
It's going to itch and burn and sting
You want to see what the scratching brings
Waves that leave me out of reach
Breaking on your back like a beach
Will we ever live in peace
'Cause those that can't do
Often have to
No those that can't do
Often have to preach
To the ones
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you stepped back inside
Not just deaf and dumb
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who's happy to go blind
Intransigence is all around
Military still in town
Armour plated suits and ties
Daddy just won't say goodbye
Referee won't blow the whistle
God is good but will He listen
I'm nearly great
But there's something missing
I left it in the duty free
But you never really belonged to me
You're not the only one
Staring at the sun
Afraid of what you'd find
If you stepped back inside
I'm not sucking on my thumb
Staring at the sun
I'm not the only one
Who's happy to go blind
Happy to go blind
Happy to go blind
Happy to go blind
I'm Happy to go
Happy to go
Happy to go blind
Happy to go blind
Happy to go blind
I'm happy to go
Happy to go
Happy to go...blind
