U2 - Heartland

See the sunrise over her skin

Don't change it.

See the sunrise over her skin

Dawn changes everything, everything.

And the delta sun

Burns bright and violent.

Mississippi and the cotton wool heat

Sixty-six - a highway speaks

Of deserts dry

Of cool green valleys

Gold and silver veins

All the shining cities

In this heartland

In this heartland

In this heartland.

Heaven knows

This is a heartland.

Heartland, our heartland.

See the sunrise over her skin

She feels like water in my hand

Freeway, like a river

Cuts through this land

Into the side of love

Like a burning spear

And the poison rain

Like dirty tears

Through the ghostranch hills

Death Valley waters

In the towers of steel

Belief goes on and on

In this heartland

In this heartland

In this heartland

Heaven knows

This is a heartland.
