U2 - The Joshua Tree (1987) by U2 (보컬) on maniadb.com

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear 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
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 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 have climbed highest mountain
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
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
I 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 colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you
Loosed the chains
Carried the cross
Oh my shame
Oh my shame
You know I believed it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
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]


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 gave 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 got me with nothing to win
And nothing else 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

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See it driving nails into souls
on 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 thorn bush
Like all the colours of a royal flush
And he's peeling off those dollar bills
(Slapping htem 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.

So she woke up
woke up from where she was
lying still said I
gotta do something
about where we're going

Step on the steam train
step out of the
driving rain maybe
run from the darkness
in the night
Singing ah ah la la la dee day
ah la la la dee day
ah la la dee day

Sweet the sin
bitter the taste in my mouth
I see seven towers
but I only see one way out
You gotta cry without weeping
talk without speaking
scream without raising
your voice
you know I took the poison
from the poison stream
then I floated outta here
Singing ah ah la la la dee day
ah la la la dee day
ah la la dee day

She runs through the streets
with her eyes painted red
under a black belly of
cloud in the rain
In through a doorway
she brings me
white golden pearls
stolen from the sea
She is raging she is raging
and the storm blows up in eyes
She will suffer the needle chill
She's running to stand still

From father to son
the blood runs thin
See faces frozen still
against the wind

The seam is split
the coal face cracked
The lines are long
there's no going back
Through hands of steel
and heart of stone
Our labor day has come and gone
And you leave me holding on
In Red Hill Town
See lights go down on
Hanging on
You're all that's left to
hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging 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
Yeah you keep me holding on
In a Red Hill Town
See the lights go down on
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to
hold on to
I'm still waiting
Hanging on
You're all that's left to
hold on to

We'll scorch the earth
Set fire to the sky
And we stoop so low
to reach so high
A link is lost the chain undone
We wait all day for night to come
And it comes like a hunter child

I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to
hold on to
I'm still waiting I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to
hold on to
Love slowly stripped away
Love seen its better day
Hanging on
Lights go out on Red Hill
Let's go down on Red Hill
Let's go down on Red Hill

Let's go down on Red Hill

Yeah

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
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

In the distance
She saw me coming round
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 down and you lifted me honey
Angel
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 water
Angel
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

Thunder thunder on the mountain
There's a rain cloud
in the desert sky
In the distance
you saw me coming round
I was calling out
I was calling out

We turn away to face the
cold enduring chill
As the day begs the
night for mercy love
The 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 run like river on like a sea
You run like a river runs to the sea
And in the world
a heart of darkness
A fire zone
Where poets speak their heart
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 runs to the sea
It runs like a river to the sea

I don't believe in painted roses
Or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night
of the merciful
I'll see you again
When the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red
Over One Tree Hill
We run like a river Run to the sea
We run like a river to the sea
And when it's raining
Raining hard
That's when the rain will
Break my heart
Raining raining in the heart
Raining in your heart
Raining raining to your heart
Raining raining raining
Raining to your heart
Raining raining
Raining in your heart
To the sea

Oh great ocean
Oh great sea
Run to the ocean
Run to the sea

You know he got the cure
You know 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
At 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

My love

Saw the hands that build
Can also pull down

The hands of love

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

In the shit house, a shotgun
Praying hands hold me down
If only the hunter was hunted
In this tin can town,
No stars in the black night
Looks like the sky fall down,
No sun in the daylight
Looks like it's chained to the ground.
Broken back to the ceiling
Broken nose to the floor
I scream at the silence
That crawls under the door (under the floor).

Chorus:
The warden says,
"The exit is sold,"
If you want a way out - silver and gold.
Silver and gold.

There's a rope around my neck
There's a trigger in your gun
Jesus say something!
I am someone!

I seen the coming and going
The captains and the kings
Their navy blue uniforms
Them bright and shiny things
Yes, captains and kings in the slave ships hold
They came to collect
Silver and gold
Silver and gold

The temperature is rising
The fever white hot
Mister I ain't got nothing
But it's more than you've got

These chains no longer bind me
Nor the shackles at my feet
Outside are the prisoners
Inside the free (set them free).

A prize fighter in a corner is told
Hit where it hurts - silver and gold
Silver and gold.
You can stop the world from turning around
You just gotta pay a penny in the pound.

My love she throws me like a rubber ball
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing
But she won't catch me, or break my fall
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing
Baby's got blu skies overhead
But in this I'm a raincloud
You know she likes a dry kind of love
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing

I'm losing you
Oh oh oh, I'm losing you yeah
Ain't love the sweetest thing
The sweetset thing

I wanted to run, she made me crawl
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing
Eternal fire, she turned me to straw
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing
You know I got black eyes
Buy they burn so brightly for her
Mine is a blind kind of love
Oh oh oh the sweetest thing

[I'm loosing you....]

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear 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
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 building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
(It’s all I can do).

In the shit house, a shotgun

[with or without you]


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 gave 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 got me with nothing to win
And nothing else 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
