Bono

I've got you under my skin.
I've got you deep in the heart of me.
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me.
I've got you under my skin.
I'd tried so not to give in.
I said to myself: this affair never will go so well.
But why should I try to resist when, baby, I know so well
I've got you under my skin?

I'd sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of a warnin' voice that comes in the night
And repeats, repeats in my ear:
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Use your mentality, wake up to reality.
But each time that I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.

(Musical interlude)

I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats - how it yells in my ear:
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win?
Why not use your mentality - step up, wake up to reality?
But each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop just before I begin
'Cause I've got you under my skin.
Yes, I've got you under my skin.

Wow. After I jumped, it ocurred to me.
Life is perfect. Life is the best, full of magic,
beauty, opportunity, and television.
And surprises...lot's of surprises, yeah.
And then there's the best stuff, of course.
Better than anything anyone ever made up,
'cause it's real.

You take a stranger by the hand
A man who doesn't understand
His wildest dreams

You walk across the dirty sand
And offer him an ocean
Of what he's never seen

Maybe I was blind
Or I, I might have closed my eyes
Maybe I was dumb
But what I forgot to say
If you didn't know
Is never let me go

Never let me go
Never let me go
Never let me go

You run from love and don't believe
Unless it catches you by the heel
That even then, you struggle

From red I learned to cross the strand
Your footprints still there in the sand
Everything else, washed away

I may not be alone
Oh I, I may have found my home
I may have lost my way
But what I forgot to say
If you didn't know
Is never let me go

Never let me go
Never let me go

Every chip from every cup
Every promise given up
Every reason that's not enough
Is falling, falling at your feet

Every band elastic limit
Every race when there's nothing in it
Every winner that's lost a ticket
Is falling, falling at your feet
I've come crawling, falling at your feet

Everyone who needs a friend
Every life that has no end
Every knee not ready to bend
Is falling, falling at your feet
I've come crawling, now I'm falling at your feet

All fall down (All the manic dazed faces that you pull)
All fall down (All the action is not under your control)
All fall down (The graffiti rolling down off of your tongue)
All fall down (And the compromise you make for some)

Every teenager with acne
Every face that's spoiled by beauty
Every adult tamed by duty
They're all falling at your feet

Every foot in every face
Every cop's stop who finds the grace
Every prisioner in the maze
Every hand that needs an ace
Is falling, falling at your feet
I've come crawling, and I'm falling at your feet

(All fall down) All the books you never read
(All fall down) Just started
(All fall down) All the meals you rushed
(All fall down) Never tasted

Every eye closed by a bruise
Every player who just can't lose
Every pop star howling abuse
Every drunk back on the booze
All falling at your feet
Oh I'm falling at your feet

(All fall down) All the information
(All fall down) All the big ideas
(All fall down) All the radio waves
(All fall down) Electronic seas
(All fall down) How to navigate
(All fall down) How to simply be
(All fall down) To know when to wait
(All fall down) This plain simplicity
(All fall down) In whom shall I trust
(All fall down) How might I be still
(All fall down) Teach me to surrender
(All fall down) Not my will, thy will

I know you're so sad
So sad you can't cry
But I know you let go
Although you can't remember why

Your lipstick don't fit
Your strap's coming loose
You're out in the hall
Waltzing the blues

Now you hurt somewhere
They won't find a bruise
You've been learning to walk
In those dancin' shoes

I had a mama
She told me 'bout you
She said true love don't lie
You touch that woman
And the smoke won't leave your eyes

You're talking, you walk
'Cause you can't refuse
Learning to walk
In those dancin' shoes

Now you hurt somewhere
They won't find a bruise
Learning to walk
In those dancin' shoes

Come to me
Come lie beside me
Oh, don't deny me your love

Make sense of me
Walk through my doorway
Don't hide in the hallway
Oh love, step over

I'll follow you down
I'll follow you down

In the name of whiskey
In the name of song
You didn't look back
You didn't belong

In the name of reason
In the name of hope
In the name of religion
In the name of dope

In the name of freedom
you drifted away
To see the sun shining
on some one else's day

In the name of United
and the BBC
In the name of Georgie Best
and LSD

In the name of the Father
and his wife the Spirit
You said you did not
they said you did it

In the name of justice
In the name of fun
In the name of the Father
In the name of the Son

Call to me
No one is listening
I'm waiting to hear from you, love

Stay with me
It's cold in the ground
But there's peace in the sound
of the white and the black
spilling over

I'll follow you down

Wise men say, only fools rush in
But I can't help, Falling in love with you

Shall I stay?
Would it be a sin?
If i can't help, Falling in love with you.

Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help, Falling in love with you

Like a river flows, surely to the sea
Darling so it goes, some things are meant to be

Take my hand, take my whole life too
For I can't help falling in love, with you

For I can't help falling in love, with you

I am he as you are he as
you are me and
we are all together
See how they run like
pigs from a gun see
how they fly
I'm crying
Sitting on a cornflake
waiting for the van to come
Corporation tee shirt
stupid bloody tuesday
Man you been a naughty boy
you let your face grow long
I am the eggman
they are the eggmen
I am the walrus goo goo g'joo
Mister city policeman sitting
Pretty little
policemen in a row
See how they fly like
lucy in the sky
see how they run
I'm crying

I'm crying crying
Yellow matter custard
dripping from a dead dog's eye
Crabalocker fishwife
pornographic priestess
Boy you been a naughty girl
you let your knickers down
I am the eggman
they are the eggmen
I am the walrus
goo goo g'joo

Sitting in an english garden
waiting for the sun
If the sun don't come you
get a tan From standing
in the english rain
I am the eggman
they are the eggmen
I am the walrus
goo goo g'joo g'goo goo g'joo
goo goo g'joo g'goo goo g'joo
Expert textpert
choking smokers
Don't you thing the joker
laughs at you
See how they smile
like pigs in a sky
See how they snied
I'm crying
Semolina pilchard
climbing up the eiffel tower
Elementary penguin singing
hari krishna Man
you should have seen them
kicking edgar allan poe
I am the eggman
they are the eggmen
I am the walrus
goo goo g'joo g'goo goo g'joo
goo goo g'joo g'goo goo g'joo

Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmelade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she s gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain
Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies,
Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers
That grow so incredibly high.
Newspaper taxis appear on the shore
Waiting to take you away
Climb in the back with your head in the clouds
And you re gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Picture yourself on a train in a station
With plasticine porters with looking glass ties
Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile
The girl with the kaleidoscope eyes
Lucy in the sky with diamonds...

My heart is longing for you, love
I cared for you more then you knew
Though you have broken each promise
Yesterday's dreams are untrue


Alone, I'll be yearning tomorrow
When sunshine brings memories of you
My sunshine will turn into sorrow
As a dream of the love you once knew


Why should I always be lonesome
When sunny and blue are the skies
While shadows and loneliness linger
I'm dreaming with tears in my eyes


Why did you promise me sweetheart
Never to leave me alone
Yesterday's sunshine is faded
You're love wasn't true like my own


Alone, I'll be yearning tomorrow
When sunshine brings memories of you
My sunshine will turn into sorrow
As a dream of the love we once knew


Why should I always be lonesome
When sunny and blue are the skies
While shadows and loneliness linger
I'm dreaming with tears in my eyes

Dancin' where the stars go blue Dancin' where the evening fell Dancin' in your wooden shoes In a wedding gown Dancin' out on 7th street Dancin' through the underground Dancin' little marionette Are you happy now? Where do you go when you're lonely Where do you go when you're blue Where do you go when you're lonely I'll follow you When the stars go blue, blue When the stars go blue, blue When the stars go blue, blue When the stars go blue Laughing with your pretty mouth Laughing with your broken eyes Laughing with your lover's tongue In a lullaby Where do you go when you're lonely Where do you go when you're blue Where do you go when you're lonely I'll follow you When the stars go blue, blue When the stars go blue, blue When the stars, when the stars go blue, blue When the stars go blue When the stars go blue, blue, blue Stars go blue When the stars go blue Where do you go when you're lonely Where do you go when you're blue, yeah Where do you go when you're lonely I'll follow you, I'll follow you, I'll follow you I'll follow you, I'll follow you, yeah Where do you go, yeah Where do you go, Where do you go

Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring....
My summer wine is really made from all these things

[Bono]
I walked in town on silver spurs that jingled to
and sang a song that I had sang just for a few
She saw my silver spurs and said let's pass some time
And I will give to you...summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh...summer wine

[Andrea]
Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring....
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you.....summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

[Bono]
My eyes grew heavy and my lips they could not speak
I tried to stand up but I could not find my feet
she reassured me with an unfamiliar line
And then she gave to me...more summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

[Andrea]
Strawberries, cherries and an angel's kiss in spring....
My summer wine is really made from all these things
Take off your silver spurs and help me pass the time
And I will give to you.....summer wine

[Andrea and Bono]
Ohhhh....summer wine

When we woke up, the sun was shining in our eyes
The silver spurs were gone, my head felt twice its size
She took my silver spurs, a dollar and a dime
And left us craving for.....more summer wine
Ohhh..summer wine...

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can’t I can’t
How long will it take
Before these feelings
Go away
How much longer do I wait
And are there any real answers
Anyway
Your silence in a crowded room
Louder than the loudest tune
I hang on every word
And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can’t I can’t
I miss you in everything
I was too fast traveling
To take you in
I know silence is no crime
Just wish I could hear you fill it up
One more time
Yes I know what you`d say to me
Exactly what you say to me
I still hang on every word
And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
Yourself
In a time of treason
Is there time for trust?
Where there’s no them
Only us
Is there time for reason?
Has your heart had enough
Is it time to let go
And rise above?
And you said rise above
Open your eyes to love
And you said rise above
Yourself

And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can’t I can’t
How long will it take
Before these feelings
Go away
How much longer do I wait
And are there any real answers
Anyway
Your silence in a crowded room
Louder than the loudest tune
I hang on every word
And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
But I can’t I can’t
I miss you in everything
I was too fast traveling
To take you in
I know silence is no crime
Just wish I could hear you fill it up
One more time
Yes I know what you`d say to me
Exactly what you say to me
I still hang on every word
And you said rise above
Open your eyes up
And you said rise above
Yourself
In a time of treason
Is there time for trust?
Where there’s no them
Only us
Is there time for reason?
Has your heart had enough
Is it time to let go
And rise above?
And you said rise above
Open your eyes to love
And you said rise above
Yourself
