A Sort of Homecoming – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:35 AM PDT


And you know it’s time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light in the distance

And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, desire, time
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape

Oh, oh, oh…
On borderland we run…

I’ll be there
I’ll be there…
Tonight
A high road
A high road out from here

The city walls are all pulled down
The dust, a smoke screen all around
See faces ploughed like fields that once
Gave no resistance

And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill
As the valley explode
Dislocated, suffocated
The land grows weary of its own

Oh, oh, oh…on borderland we run…
And still we run
We run and don’t look back
I’ll be there
I’ll be there
Tonight
Tonight

I’ll be there tonight…I believe
I’ll be there…somehow
I’ll be there…tonight
Tonight

The wind will crack in winter time
This bomb-blast lightning waltz
No spoken words, just a scream…

Tonight we’ll build a bridge
Across the sea and land
See the sky, the burning rain
She will die and live again
Tonight

And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and fallen snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light’s in the distance

Oh don’t sorrow, no don’t weep
For tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

A Room At The Heartbreak Hotel – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:32 AM PDT

From where I stand
I can see thrugh you
From where you’re sitting, pretty one
I know it got to you

I see the stars in your eyes
You want the truth, but you need the lies
Like Judy Garland, like Valentino
You give your life for rock n’ roll
Uh huh

Stand, we’re on a landslide of love
You got everything you want
But what you need you give away

For primitive love
And a ride on the mistery train
A primitive love
A room at the Heart…
The Heartbreak Hotel
A room at the Heartbreak
Heartbreak Hotel
A room at the Heartbreak
Heartbreak Hotel

You say it’s love, it’s not the money
You let them suck your life out like honey
Turning tricks, you’re on the street
Selling your kisses so bittersweet

A primitive love
A and a ride on the mistery train
A primitive love
A room at the Heart
The Heartbreak Hotel

A room at the Heartbreak, the Heartbreak,
The Heartbreak Hotel, Hotel
[Repeat until end]

A Man And A Woman – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:31 AM PDT

Little sister don’t you worry about a thing today
Take the heat from the sun
Little sister
I know that everything is not ok
But you’re like honey on my tongue

True love never can be rent
But only true love can keep beauty innocent

I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman
No I could never take a chance
‘Cause I could never understand
The mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

You can run from love
And if it’s really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel
But you can’t be numb for love
The only pain is to feel nothing at all
How can I hurt when I’m holding you?

I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

And you’re the one, there’s no-one else
You make me want to lose myself
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

Brown eyed girl across the street
On rue Saint Divine
I thought this is the one for me
But she was already mine
You were already mine…

Little sister
I’ve been sleeping in the street again
Like a stray dog
Little sister
I’ve been trying to feel complete again
But you’re gone and so is God

The soul needs beauty for a soul mate
When the soul wants…the soul waits …

No I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

For love and sex and faith and fear
And all the things that keep us here
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

How can I hurt when I’m holding you?

A Different Kind Of Blue – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:29 AM PDT

Those cars
On you
So small
Down there
From here
So high
We drift
We fly
Twilight breaks through
A different kind of blue
More lights
Blue signs
All gold
All new
So small
So high
Down there
Tonight
With twilight breaking through
It’s a different kind of blue
Twilight breaking through
It’s a different kind of blue

A Day Without Me – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:27 AM PDT

Starting a landslide in my ego
Look from the outside
To the world I left behind

I’m dreaming
You’re awake
If I were sleeping
What’s at stake
A day without me

Whatever the feelings
I keep feeling
What are the feelings
You left behind

Today’s a day without me

I started a landslide in my ego
Look from the outside
To the world I left behind

In the world I left behind
Wipe their eyes, and then let go
To the world I left behind
Shed a tear, and then let go…

A Celebration – U2

Posted: 03 Jun 2010 02:23 AM PDT

Shake! Shake!

Don’t go
I believe in a celebration
I believe you set me free
I believe you can loose this chains
I believe you can dance with me
Dance with me

Shake! Shake!
Shake! Shake!

I believe in the third world war
I believe in the atomic bomb
I believe in the powers that be
But they won’t overpower me

And, and you can go there too
And, and you can go go go go

Shake! Shake!
Shake! Shake!

And we don’t have the time
And everything goes ’round and ’round
And we don’t have the time
To watch the world go tumbling down

Go! Go!

I believe in the bells of Christ’s Church
Ringing for this land
I believe in the cells of Mount Joy
Doesn’t understand

And, and you can go there too
And, and you can go go go go

I believe in the walls of Jericho(And you…)
I believe they’re coming down(Can go there too)
I belive in this city’s children (And you…
I believe the trumpet’s sound(can go go go go)

And you can go there too
And you can go go go go…

I believe in what I’m doing
What am I doing here…

The Reason Why – The Click Five

Posted: 02 Jun 2010 10:28 PM PDT

Yesterday
I waited for your friends to walk away
So I could say just to what I mean

I know we’re moving fast
We’re running from the past
I’m holding on before it fades away

Could it be that maybe it’s our first mistake
And Baby that’s alright
It’s crazy how we lost ourselves tonight
There’s a reason why they say that we should give it time
But time is not enough
And that’s the reason why
When you’re young you fall in love

Standing still
I’m waiting round to see if this is real
Cause I feel like I’m asleep
I’ll open up my eyes
Cause you might be the type
Of girl that makes me dream when I’m awake

Could it be that maybe it’s our first mistake
And baby that’s alright
It’s crazy how we lost ourselves tonight
There’s a reason why they say that we should give it time
But time is not enough
And that’s the reason why
When you’re young you fall in love

So tell me can this really work
Or will we end up getting hurt
Is this love or myth
So tell me are you in for this
There’s so much more than we can see
More than you
More than me
It takes two to believe

Maybe it’s our first mistake
And baby that’s alright
It’s crazy how we lost ourselves tonight

Maybe it’s our first mistake
And baby that’s alright
It’s crazy how we lost ourselves tonight
There’s a reason why they say that we should give it time
But time is not enough
And that’s the reason why
When you’re young you fall in love

That’s the reason why when you’re young you fall in love
That’s the reason why when you’re young you fall in love

Angel To You (Devil To Me) – The Click Five

Posted: 02 Jun 2010 10:21 PM PDT

When I saw her she looked my way
and I knew that I was over my head
ruby lips on a smile so sweet
with a rude attitude that could knock me dead

(suddenly)
I heard a voice when she called my name
(suddenly)
I knew my life was gonna change

well she’s hotter than hell
and she’s cool as they come
and she smiled and she’s wild
all rolled into one
ya you say I’m the guy that you wish you could be
it’s not easy to see
that she’s an angel to you
but she’s a devil to me

all my friends say you lucky guy
everyone wants to stand in your place
and so I give it another try
I’m not sure how much more my poor heart can take

(suddenly)
I feel the blood pumpin’ round my brain
(suddenly)
I grab my bat and I’m back in the game

well she’s hotter than hell
and she’s cool as they come
and she smiled and she’s wild
all rolled into one
ya you say I’m the guy that you wish you could be
it’s not easy to see
that she’s an angel to you
but she’s a devil to me

I don’t know what to do
I don’t know what to say
cause noone knows that she puts me through anyway
I’m awake in disaster
I can’t seem to get past her
I try and I try but I can’t get away

that she’s an angel to you
but she’s a devil to me
that she’s an angel to you
but she’s a devil to me
it’s not easy to see

well she’s hotter than hell
and she’s cool as they come
and she smiled and she’s wild
all rolled into one
ya you say I’m the guy that you wish you could be
it’s not easy to see

well she’s hotter than hell
and she’s cool as they come
and she smiled and she’s wild
all rolled into one
ya you say I’m the guy that you wish you could be
it’s not easy to see
that she’s an angel to you
but she’s a devil to me

Voices Carry – The Click Five

Posted: 02 Jun 2010 10:16 PM PDT

In the dark I like to read her mind
But I’m frightened of the things I might find
Oh there must be something she’s thinking of to tear her away
When I tell her that I’m falling in love, why does she say

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry, ohh

I try so hard not to get upset
Because all the trouble I’ll get
Oh she tells me tears are something to hide and something to fear
And I try so hard to keep it inside so no one can hear

Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry, ohh

She wants me
But only part of the time
She wants me
If she can keep me in line

Keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Ohhhh hush, she says, shut up, she says, shut up
Oh why can’t you just keep it down
Voices carry
Hush hush, she might overhear
Hush hush, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry
Hush hush, keep it down now, voices carry

Time Machine – The Click Five

Posted: 02 Jun 2010 10:14 PM PDT

Oh what mess
you’ve got the best of my heart
It broke and now it’s just a joke
Cause you’re moving right along
I’m still here and you’re gone
Oh what shame
You know I didnt mean for the winds to change
Won’t ever be the same
Cause the kisses that you blew
Could never ever move

I think I need some time by myself
Without anybody else
I just need to unwind
In my time machine
I need to go far away
A few years back would be ok
I just need to unwind
In my time machine

Hey you
Ya i’m talking to you
You lost the love in bed
And now it’s just dead
Cause it didn’t mean a thing
Waiting for a ring
Hey it’s a game
And ain’t it a shame that it’s just a show
I thought that this was love
But I can’t be fooled again
I’m cryin’ out
But I can’t give in

I think you need some time by yourself
Without anybody else
You just need to unwind
In your time machine
You need to go far away
A few years back would be ok
You just need to unwind
In your time machine

All the things that we could change
(things that we could change)
Now we’ll never be the same

I think I need some time by myself
Without anybody else
I just need to unwind
In my time machine
I need to go far away
A few years back would be ok
I just need to unwind
In my time machine

By Myself
I don’t need anybody else
I just need to unwind
In my time machine
In my time machine
