U2 - Peace On Earth [Songs of Surrender version]

Heaven on Earth
We need it now
I'm sick of all of this
Hanging around
Sick of sorrow
Sick of pain
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

It's already gone too far
Who said that if you go in hard
You won't get hurt

Jesus could 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 colour 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, 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 this 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

U2 - Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of [Songs of Surrender version]

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 colours 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 still 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 now you can't get out of it
Oh love look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment and now 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 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

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

U2 - Walk On (Ukraine) [Songs of Surrender version]

And if the comic takes the stage
And no one laughs
And does a dance on his own grave
For a photograph
This is not a curtain call
This is the greatest act of all
A stand up for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can’t steal it
They can’t even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

And if the dancer on the street
Wears a veil of tears
It’s a dance no army can defeat
Love turns her fears
Into a kind of rage
That can’t be kept inside a cage
You fight or you fly
We’re born or we die
For freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you’ve got they can’t deny it
Can’t sell it or buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight
Yeah I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
You could only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Home, you don’t know what it is till you’re forced to flee one
Home, till I know where it is I will have to be one
Home, that’s where the hurt is

I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
Whatever they break
All that you dream up
All you design
All that you can’t leave behind

All that you reckon
All that you dare
All that you fought for
When it wasn’t there
All that you summit
The hills that you climb
All that you can’t leave behind

Not gonna leave it behind
Not gonna leave it behind
Not gonna leave it behind
Not gonna leave it behind

U2 - 'Baby' One

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you now?
You got someone to blame

You said, one love, one life
When it’s one need in the night
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don’t care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Well it’s too late, tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We’re one, but we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One…

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus?
To the lepers in your head

Did I ask too much, more than a lot?
You gave me nothing, now it’s all I got
We’re one, but we’re not the same
Well we, hurt each other
Then we do it again

You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
Well then you make me crawl
And I can’t be holding on
To what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters
Brothers
One life
But we’re not the same
We get to
Carry each other
Carry each other

One… (love)
One

Makin’ it, makin’ it, makin’ it
(Air, air, water)

U2 with Soweto Gospel Choir - Where The Streets Have No Name [Live]

I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold me inside.
I wanna reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name.

I wanna feel sunlight on my face.
I see the dust-cloud
Disappear without a trace.
I wanna take shelter
From the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name.

We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love.
And when I go there
I go there with you
(It's all I can do).

The city's a flood, and our love turns to rust.
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust.
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name.

We're still building and burning down love
Burning down love.
And when I go there
I go there with you
(It's all I can do).

U2 - With Or Without You [Songs Of Surrender version]

See the stone set in your eyes
Am I such a thorn in your side
Should I wait for you
Sleight of hand and a twist of fate
On a bed of nails you make me wait
Without you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reach the shore
We give it all but I want more
And I’m greedy for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live with or without you

And you give yourself away
You give yourself away
And you give, you give
You give yourself away

My hands are tied, my body bruised
You’ve got me with nothing to win
And nothing left to lose

You give yourself away
You give yourself away
You give
You give
You give yourself away
With or without you
With or without you

I can’t live
With or without you

With or without you

U2 - Desire [Songs of Surrender version]

Lover, I'm off the streets
I'm gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire.

She's the candle burnin' in my room
Yeah, I'm like the needle
The needle and spoon
Over the counter, with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody's got one
I'm in a fever, when I'm beside her
Desire
Desire.

And the fever, gettin' higher
Desire
Desire.
(Burning, burning).

She's the dollars
She's my protection
Yeah, she's the promise
In the year of election.
Sister I can't let you go
Like a preacher stealin' hearts at a travellin' show
For love or money, money, money... ?
And the fever, gettin' higher.
Desire.

U2 - City Of Blinding Lights [Songs of Surrender version]

The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart dayglo eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies
For people like us

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground.

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Don't look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs purple irises
The camera can't see

I've seen you walk unafraid
I've seen you in the clothes you made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me

And I miss you when you're not around
I'm getting ready to leave the ground

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time

U2 - One [Songs of Surrender version]

Is it getting better, or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you, now you got someone to blame?
You say one love, one life, when it's one need in the night.
One love, we get to share it
Leaves you baby if you don't care for it.

Did I disappoint you or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love and you want me to go without.
Well, it's too late tonight to drag the past out into the light.
We're one, but we're not the same.
We get to carry each other, carry each other... one

Have you come here for forgiveness,
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus to the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much, more than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I got.
We're one, but we're not the same.
Well, we hurt each other, then we do it again.

You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law.
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
And I can't be holding on to what you got, when all you got is hurt.

One love, one blood, one life, you got to do what you should.
One life with each other: sisters and brothers.

U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close!) [Songs of Surrender version]

Green light, Seven Eleven,
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes.
You don't smoke, don't even want to.
Hey now, check your change.
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turnin' but you're upside down.
You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive.
Oh, is that what it is?

Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground.
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around.
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows.
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing.

If I could stay, oh stay
If I could stay, if I could stay
If I could stay, and the night would be enough.

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio.
With satellite television
You can go anywhere:
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin.

And, if you listen, I can't call.
And, if you jump, you just might fall.
And, if you shout, I'll only hear you.

If I could stay, then the night would give you up
If I could stay, and the day would keep its trust
If I could stay, with the demons you drowned
Stay with the spirit I found
Stay, and the night would be enough

Three o’clock in the morning
It’s quiet, there’s no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground

U2 - All I Want Is You [Songs Of Surrender version]

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold.
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.

You say you'll give me a highway with no-one on it
Treasure, just to look upon it
All the riches in the night.

You say you'll give me eyes in the moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest.
All the promises we make, from the cradle to the grave
When all I need is you.

You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night.

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold.
All the promises we break, from the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you.

U2 - Invisible [Songs Of Surrender version]

It’s like the room just cleared of smoke
I didn’t even want the heart you broke
It’s yours to keep, you just might need one
I finally found my real name
I won’t be me, when you see me again
No I won’t be my father’s son

I’m more than you know
I’m more than you see here
I’m more than you let me be
I’m more than you know
A body and soul
You don’t see me but you will
I am not invisible

I’m leaving the Invisible world
I’m leaving the Invisible world

I don’t dream, not as such
I don’t even think about you that much
Unless I start to think at all
Of those frozen days
And your frozen ways
They melt away
Your face like snow

I’m more than you know
I’m more than you see here
I’m more than you let me be
I’m more than you know
A body and soul
You don’t see me but you will
I am not invisible
I am here

There is no them
There is no them
There’s only us
There’s only us
There is no them
There is no them
There’s only us
There’s only us
There is no them
There is no them
There’s only you
There’s only me
There is no them

U2 - Two Hearts Beat As One

I don't know, I don't know which side I'm on.
I don't know my right from left or my right from wrong.
They say I'm a fool, they say I'm nothing
But if I'm a fool for you oh, that's something.
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts.

I can't stop to dance
Honey, this is my last chance
I said, can't stop to dance
Maybe this is my last chance.
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts.

Beat on black, beat on white
Beat on anything, don't get it right.
Beat on you, beat on me, beat on love.

I don't know
How to say what's got to be said
I don't know if it's black or white
There's others see it red
I don't get the answers right
I'll leave that to you
Is this love out of fashion
Or is it the time of year?
Are these words distraction
To the words you wanna hear?
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts beat as one.
Two hearts.

I try to spit it out
Try to explain.
The way I wanna feel
Oh, yeah, two hearts.

Well I can't stop to dance.
Maybe this is my last chance.
And I said, I can't stop to dance.
Maybe this is my last chance.
I said don't stop to dance
Maybe this is my last chance.
I said I can't stop to dance.
Maybe this is our last chance.
I said don't stop to dance.
Maybe this is our last chance.
Oh, oh!

U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name [Songs Of Surrender version]

I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold me inside
Show me a place
High on a desert plane
Where the streets have no name

I wanted to feel sunlight on my face
But I need some shade and shelter
In this waterless place
where each desert rose is a prayer for rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
Can get through the fire
If I go with you
There’s no other way through

The city’s a flood, and our love turns to rust
We’re beaten and blown by the wind
We labour and lust
Your voice is a whisper in the hurricane
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
Can get through the fire
If I go with you
There’s no other way through

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re building and burning down love
Burning down love
Can get through the fire
If I go with you
There’s no other way through.

U2 - Sunday Bloody Sunday [Songs Of Surrender version]

I can’t believe the news today
I can’t close my eyes and make it go away
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
‘Cos tonight
We can be as one, tonight, tonight

Broken bottles under children’s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead-end street
But I won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Alright, let’s go

And the battle’s just begun
There’s many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long? How long?
‘Cos tonight we can be as one, tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe the tears from your eyes
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Wipe the tears from your eyes

Here at the murder scene
The beginning of a fiction
The facts will not come clean
Religion is the enemy of the Holy Spirit guide
And the battle just begun
Where is the victory Jesus won

U2 - Until The End Of The World [Songs Of Surrender version]

Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold, just passing time.
Last time we met it was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom.
We broke the bread, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time except you.
You were talking about the end of the world.

I took the money, I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think.
You led me on with those innocent eyes
And you know I love the element of surprise.
In the garden I was playing the tart
I kissed your lips and broke your heart.
You, you were acting like it was the end of the world.

In my dream, I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows they'd learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy.
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy.
You, you said you'd wait till the end of the world.

U2 - Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own [Songs Of Surrender version]

Tough, you think you've got the stuff
You're telling me and anyone
You're hard enough

You don't have to put up a fight
You don't have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I, that's alright
We're the same soul
I don't need, I don't need to hear you say
That if we weren't so alike
You'd like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don't have to go it alone

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you when I don't pick up the phone
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

I know that we don't talk
I'm sick of it all
Can - you - hear - me - when - I -
Sing, you're the reason I sing
You're the reason why the opera is in me

Well hey now
Still gotta let you know
A house still doesn't make a home
Don't leave me here alone...

And it's you when I look in the mirror
And it's you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can't make it on your own
Sometimes you can't make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can't make it on your own

U2 - Bad [Songs Of Surrender version]

If I twist and turn away
If I tear myself in two again
If I could you know I would
If I could, I would, let it go
Surrender
This is a song of surrender

If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave these jars of clay, you can break, not break away
Into the lights but out of the flame
Into a time of on innocence again

If I could ask for help I know what you would say
You can only have it all, if you give it all away
You can only have it all, if you give it all away

Let it go, so not to fade away
I’m wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
I’m not sleeping
Oh no

If they should ask, then maybe you could tell what I should say
Cause Old Glory fades to blue and black
Bruised silken sky now a burning flag
Where colours crash
Collide in teenage eyes

If I could you know I would
If I could I would let it go

This dope sick nation
Dislocation
No revelation
In temptation
Just isolation

So let it go
So not fade away
Let it go
So not fade away
I’m wide awake
I’m wide awake
Wide awake
I’m not sleeping
Oh no

U2 - Until the End of the World (Soundtrack Version)

Haven't seen you in quite a while
I was down the hold, just passing time.
Last time we met it was a low-lit room
We were as close together as a bride and groom.
We ate the food, we drank the wine
Everybody having a good time except you.
You were talking about the end of the world.

I took the money, I spiked your drink
You miss too much these days if you stop to think.
You led me on with those innocent eyes
And you know I love the element of surprise.

You, you were acting like it was the end of the world.

In my dream, I was drowning my sorrows
But my sorrows they'd learned to swim
Surrounding me, going down on me
Spilling over the brim
Waves of regret and waves of joy.
I reached out for the one I tried to destroy.
You, you said you'd wait till the end of the world.
