------------------------------------------------------- Where the streets have no name / U2 (The joshua tree) I want to run I want to hide I want to rear down the walls That hold me inside I want to reach out And touch the flame Where the streets have no name I want to feel sunlight on my face See that dust cloud disappear without a trace I want to take shelter from the poison rain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name We're still 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 cities a flood And our love turns to rust We're beaten and blown by the wind Trapled in dust I'll show you a place High on the desert plain Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Where the streets have no name Still building Then burning down love Burning down love And when I go there I go there with you (It's all I can do) ------------------------------------------------------- I still haven't found what I'm looking for / U2 (The joshua tree) I have climbed the highest mountains I have run through the fields Only to be with you Only to be with you I have run I have crawled I have scaled these city walls Only to be with you But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for I have kissed honey lips Felt the healing in her fingertips It burned like fire This burning desire I have spoke with the tongue of angels I have held the hand of a devil It was warm in the night It was cold as a stone But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for I believe in the Kingdom Come Then all the colour will bleed into one But yes I'm still running You broke the bonds You loosed the chains You carried the cross And my shame And my shame You know I believe it But I still haven't found What I'm looking for But I still haven't found What I'm looking for ------------------------------------------------------- With or without you / U2 (The joshua tree) See the stone set in your eyes See the thorne 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 left to win And nothing else to lose With or without you With or without you I can't live With or without you ------------------------------------------------------- Bullet the blue sky / U2 (The joshua tree) In the howling wind comes a stinging rain See it driving nails in the soul of the tree of pain From the firefly, a red orange glow See the face of fear running scared in the valley below Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome Plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire See them burning crosses, see the flames, higher and higher Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Suit and tie comes up to me His face red Like a rose on a thorne bush Like all the colours of a royal flush And he's peeling off those dollar bills (Slapping them down), one hundred, two hundred And I can see the fighter planes And I can see the fighter planes Across the mud huts as the children sleep Through the alleys of a quiet city street Up the staircase to the first floor We turn the key and slowly unlock the door A man breathes deep into saxophone Through the walls we hear the city groan Outside is America Outside is America ------------------------------------------------------- Running to stand still / U2 (The joshua tree) And so she woke up From where she was lying still Said we got to do something about where we're going Step on a steam train Step out of the driving rain Maybe run from the darkness in the night Singing Ha La La La De Day Singing Ha La La La De Day Sweet the sin But bitter the taste in my mouth I see seven towers But I only see one way out You got to cry without weeping Talk without speaking Scream without raising your voice, you know I took the poison from the poison stream Then I floated out of here Singing Ha La La La De Day Singing Ha La La La De Day She runs through the streets With her eyes painted red Under black belly of cloud in the rain In through a doorway she brings me White gold and pearls stolen from the sea She is raging She is raging and the storm blows up in her eyes She will suffer the needle chill She is running to stand still ------------------------------------------------------- Red hill mining town / U2 (The joshua tree) From father to son The blood runs thin Our faces frozen (stiff) against the wind The seam is split The coal face craced The lines are long And there's no going back Through hands of steel And a heart of stone Our labour day has come and gone And you leave us holding on In Red Hill Town As the lights go down I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm holding on You're all that's left to hold on to The glass is cut The bottle run dry Our love runs cold In the caverns of the night We're wounded by fear Injured in doubt I can lose myself You I can't live without Because you keep me holding on In Red Hill Town as the lights go down I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hold on to I'm holding on You're all that's left to hold on to And we scorch the earth Set fire to the sky Stoop so low to reach so high A link is lost The chain undone Now we wait all day For the night to come And it comes And it comes Like a hunter (child) I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hang on to I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hang on to We see love slowly stripped away Our love, has seen a better day I'm hanging on You're all that's left to hang on to I'm holding on You're all that's left to hang on to See the lights go down on Red Hill Town See lights go down on Red Hill Town ------------------------------------------------------- In God's country / U2 (The joshua tree) Desert sky Dream beneath a desert sky The rivers run But soon run dry We need new dreams tonight Desert rose Dreamed I saw a desert rose Dress torn in ribbons And in bows Like a siren she calls (to me) Sleep comes like a drug ... In God's country Sad eyes crooked crosses ... In God's country Set me alight We'll punch a hole right through the night Everyday the dreamers die To see what's on the other side She is Liberty And she comes to rescue me Hope faith, her vanity The greatest gift is gold Sleep comes like a drug ... In God's country Sad eyes crooked crosses ... In God's country Naked flame She stands with a naked flame I stand with the sons of Cain Burned by the fire of love Burned by the fire of love ------------------------------------------------------- Trip through your wires / U2 (The joshua tree) In the distance She saw me coming I was calling out I was calling out Still shaking Still in pain You put me back together again I was cold And you clothed me honey I was cold And you lifted me honey Angel or devil I was thirsty And you wet my lips You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires I was broken, bent out of shape I was naked in the clothes you made My lips were dry, throat like rust You gave me shelter From the heat and the dust There's no more water in the well No more water in the well Angel or devil I was thisty and you wet my lips You, I'm waiting for you You, you set my desire I trip through your wires Thunder, thunder on the mountain There's a rain cloud in the desert sky In the distance you saw me coming I was calling out I was calling out ------------------------------------------------------- One tree hill / U2 (The joshua tree) We turn away to face the cold, enduring chill As the day begs the night for mercy Your sun so bright it leaves no shadows, only scars Carved into stone on the face of earth The moon is up and over One Tree Hill We see the sun go down in your eyes You ran like a river to the sea Like a river to the sea And in our world a heart of darkness, a firezone Where poets speak their hearts, then bleed for it Jara sang his song a weapon, in the hands of love You know his blood still cries from the ground It runs like a river to the sea Like a river to the sea I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts While bullets rape the night of the mercyfull I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky And the moon has truned red over One Tree Hill We run like a river to the sea Like a river to the sea ------------------------------------------------------- Exit / U2 (The Joshua Tree) You know he got the cure ... but then he went astray He used to stay awake To drive the dreams he had away He wanted to believe In the hands of love ... His head it felt heavy As he cut across the land A dog started crying Like a broken hearted man At the howling wind ... The howling wind He went deeper into black Deeper into white ... he could see The stars shine Like nails in the night He felt the healing Healing, healing, healing Hands of love Like the stars shiny, shiny From above He put his hands in the pocket His finger on the steel The pistol weighed heavy His heart he could feel Was beating, beating Beating, beating oh my love Oh my love, oh my love Oh my love He saw the hands that build Could also pull down ... The hands of love ------------------------------------------------------- Mothers of the disappeared / U2 (The joshua tree) Midnight, our sons and daughters Were cut down and taken from us Hear their heartbeat We hear their heartbeat In the wind We hear their laughter In the rain We see their tears Hear their heartbeat We hear their heartbeat Night hangs like a prisoner Stretched over black and blue Hear their heartbeat We hear their heartbeat In the trees Our sons stand naked Through the walls Our daughters cry See their tears in the rainfall
