Single Greatest Line Of Any U2 Song

[heartbeat274]

I remember
When we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together
In whispers and moans
When I was all messed up
And I had opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb
Hanging over my bed

Cry without weeping
Talk without speaking
Scream without raising your voice

Blessings aren't just for the ones who kneel, luckily

[heartbeat274]

CHANGED MY MIND COMPLETELY!

"Mercy"

Love is when I lie
Love puts the blue back in my eye
Love has come again
I am gone again
Love's got to be with the weak
Only then love gets a chance to speak
Love will come again

Even though all the lyrics of this song are poignant to me.

i totally agree with you on heartland
i also love all the lyrics to bad and running to standstill
and this from mothers of the disappeared

"midnight our sons and daughters
were cut down and taken from us
hear there heart beat
we hear there heart beat"

who else finds mothers of the disappeared haunting

Ah.... I get chills every time I hear that part. Love it!!!

[BGD75]

"....And you can swallow
Or you can spit
You can throw it up
Or choke on it ...."

(this is just one of many-but first came to mind because I was listening to this song yesterday)

Yes, me too.

I am yourself in someone else, go find yourself in me.

Um, it's:

"Hide yourself in someone else
Don't find yourself in me"

Well the lyric sounded better the way I "misheard" it. Perhaps that should be moved to the misheard lyrics then. Since it was a mistake, I guess my lyrics would have to be:

"Time won't leave me as I am, Time won't take the boy out of this man."

Maybe you think so...

When he sings "don't find yourself in me" he's being humble and telling that person to be themselves. Your way would be quite arrogant saying, look to me be more like me."

That line shows up again in another form in 'Love Rescue Me'.
