  • Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses? Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    U2

    From the Album Achtung Baby

    You’re dangerous ’cause you’re honest
    You’re dangerous, you don’t know what you want
    Well you left my heart empty as a vacant lot
    For any spirit to haunt

    Hey hey sha la la
    Hey hey

    You’re an accident waiting to happen
    You’re a piece of glass left in a beach
    Well, you tell me things I know you’re not supposed to
    Then you leave me just out of reach

    Hey hey sha la la
    Hey hey sha la la

    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna drown in your blue sea?
    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna fall at the foot of thee?

    Well you stole it ’cause I needed the cash
    And you killed it ’cause I wanted revenge
    Well you lied to me ’cause I asked you to
    Baby, can we still be friends?

    Hey hey sha la la
    Hey hey sha la la

    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna drown in your blue sea?
    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna fall at the foot of thee?

    Oh, the deeper I spin
    Oh, the hunter will sin for your ivory skin
    Took a drive in the dirty rain
    To a place where the wind calls your name
    Under the trees the river laughing at you and me
    Hallelujah, heavens white rose
    The doors you open
    I just can’t close

    Don’t turn around, don’t turn around again
    Don’t turn around, your gypsy heart
    Don’t turn around, don’t turn around again
    Don’t turn around, and don’t look back
    Come on now love, don’t you look back!

    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna drown in your blue sea?
    Who’s gonna taste your salt water kisses?
    Who’s gonna take the place of me?

    Who’s gonna ride your wild horses?
    Who’s gonna tame the heart of thee?

  • Stuck In a Moment You Can’t Get Out Of Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    U2

    From the Album All That You Can’t Leave Behind

    I’m not afraid of anything in this world
    There’s nothing you can throw at me that I haven’t already heard
    I’m just trying to find a decent melody
    A song that I can sing in my own company

    I never thought you were a fool
    But darling, look at you
    You gotta stand up straight, carry your own weight
    These tears are going nowhere, baby

    You’ve got to get yourself together
    You’ve got stuck in a moment and now you can’t get out of it
    Don’t say that later will be better now you’re stuck in a moment
    And you can’t get out of it

    I will not forsake, the colors that you bring
    But the nights you filled with fireworks
    They left you with nothing
    I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me
    I listen through your ears, and through your eyes I can see

    And you are such a fool
    To worry like you do
    I know it’s tough, and you can never get enough
    Of what you don’t really need now … my oh my

    You’ve got to get yourself together
    You’ve got stuck in a moment and you can’t get out of it
    Oh love look at you now
    You’ve got yourself stuck in a moment and you can’t get out of it

    I was unconscious, half asleep
    The water is warm till you discover how deep
    I wasn’t jumping for me it was a fall
    It’s a long way down to nothing at all

    You’ve got to get yourself together
    You’ve got stuck in a moment and you can’t get out of it
    Don’t say that later will be better now
    You’re stuck in a moment and you can’t get out of it

    And if the night runs over
    And if the day won’t last
    And if our way should falter
    Along the stony pass

    And if the night runs over
    And if the day won’t last
    And if your way should falter
    Along the stony pass
    It’s just a moment
    This time will pass

  • Peace On Earth Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    U2

    From the Album All That You Can’t Leave Behind

    Heaven on Earth, we need it now
    I’m sick of all of this hanging around
    Sick of sorrow, sick of the pain
    I’m sick of hearing again and again
    That there’s gonna be peace on Earth

    Where I grew up there weren’t many trees
    Where there was we’d tear them down
    And use them on our enemies
    They say that what you mock
    Will surely overtake you
    And you become a monster
    So the monster will not break you

    And it’s already gone too far
    Who said that if you go in hard
    You won’t get hurt?

    Jesus can you take the time
    To throw a drowning man a line
    Peace on Earth
    Tell the ones who hear no sound
    Whose sons are living in the ground
    Peace on Earth
    No whos or whys
    No one cries like a mother cries
    For peace on Earth
    She never got to say goodbye
    To see the color in his eyes
    Now he’s in the dirt
    Peace on Earth

    They’re reading names out over the radio
    All the folks the rest of us won’t get to know
    Sean and Julia, Gareth and Ann and Breda
    Their lives are bigger than any big idea

    Jesus can you take the time
    To throw a drowning man a line
    Peace on Earth
    To tell the ones who hear no sound
    Whose sons are living in the ground
    Peace on Earth
    Jesus sing a song you wrote
    The words are sticking in my throat
    Peace on Earth
    Hear it every Christmas time
    But hope and history won’t rhyme
    So what’s it worth
    This peace on Earth

    Peace on Earth
    Peace on Earth
    Peace on Earth

  • I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    U2

    From the Album The Joshua Tree
    Music by U2 Lyrics by Bono

     

    I have climbed 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
    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 hardened lips
    Felt the healing fingertips
    It burned like a fire
    This burning desire

    I have spoke with eternal angels
    I have held the hands 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
    When all the colors will bleed into one
    Bleed into one
    Well, yes I’m still running

    You broke the bonds
    And you loosened the chains
    Carried the cross
    Of all my shame
    all 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
    But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
    But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

  • Beautiful Day Lyrics

    Song Lyrics on Allspirit

    U2

    From the Album All That You Can’t Leave Behind
    Music by U2 Lyrics by Bono

    The heart is a bloom
    Shoots up through the stony ground
    There’s no room
    No space to rent in this town

    You’re out of luck
    And the reason that you had to care
    The traffic is stuck
    And you’re not moving anywhere

    You thought you’d found a friend
    To take you out of this place
    Someone you could lend a hand
    In return for grace
    It’s a beautiful day
    Sky falls, you feel like
    It’s a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away

    You’re on the road
    But you’ve got no destination
    You’re in the mud
    In the maze of her imagination

    You love this town
    Even if that doesn’t ring true
    You’ve been all over
    And it’s been all over you

    It’s a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away
    It’s a beautiful day

    Touch me
    Take me to that other place
    Teach me
    I know I’m not a hopeless case

    See the world in green and blue
    See China right in front of you
    See the canyons broken by cloud
    See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
    See the Bedouin fires at night
    See the oil fields at first light
    And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
    After the flood all the colors came out

    It was a beautiful day
    Don’t let it get away
    Beautiful day

    Touch me
    Take me to that other place
    Reach me
    I know I’m not a hopeless case

    What you don’t have you don’t need it now
    What you don’t know you can feel it somehowchina, canyons
    What you don’t have you don’t need it now
    Don’t need it now
    Was a beautiful day
