Wave Of Sorrow (Birdland) - U2 |
[00:06.04] |
|
[00:16.22] |
Heat haze rising on hell's own hill |
[00:21.26] |
|
[00:22.92] |
To wake up this morning is an act of will |
[00:28.04] |
|
[00:30.24] |
Walk through the night to get here today |
[00:35.30] |
|
[00:37.29] |
To bring your children to give them away |
[00:42.20] |
|
[00:43.70] |
Oh oh this cruel sun is daylight never done |
[00:51.12] |
|
[00:51.85] |
Cruelty just begun to make a shadow of everyone |
[00:58.04] |
And if the rain came |
[01:00.55] |
|
[01:01.47] |
And if the rain came now |
[01:05.39] |
|
[01:11.40] |
Souls bent over without a breeze |
[01:15.72] |
|
[01:16.32] |
Blankets on burning trees |
[01:19.59] |
I am sick without disease |
[01:22.42] |
|
[01:23.23] |
Nobility on it's knees |
[01:25.93] |
And if the rain came |
[01:28.41] |
|
[01:29.39] |
And if the rain came now |
[01:32.83] |
|
[01:37.31] |
Would it wash us all away |
[01:40.98] |
|
[01:43.15] |
On a wave of sorrow |
[01:45.61] |
|
[01:46.75] |
Wave wave of sorrow |
[01:52.75] |
|
[01:54.35] |
Where now the holy cities |
[01:56.32] |
|
[01:57.68] |
Where are the ancient holy scrolls |
[02:00.22] |
|
[02:01.24] |
Where now Emperor Menelek |
[02:03.69] |
|
[02:04.74] |
And Queen of Sheba's gold |
[02:06.88] |
|
[02:08.04] |
You my bride wear a crown |
[02:10.61] |
|
[02:11.42] |
On your finger precious stone |
[02:14.26] |
|
[02:15.38] |
As every good thing now been sold |
[02:21.14] |
|
[02:25.04] |
Son of shepherd boy now king |
[02:29.26] |
|
[02:29.80] |
What wisdom can you bring |
[02:33.39] |
What lyric could you sing |
[02:36.25] |
|
[02:36.82] |
Where is the music of the Seraphim |
[02:39.57] |
And if the rain came |
[02:42.37] |
|
[02:43.08] |
And if the rain came now |
[02:48.76] |
|
[02:50.99] |
Would it wash us all away |
[02:55.79] |
|
[02:56.39] |
On a wave of sorrow |
[02:59.40] |
|
[02:59.95] |
Wave on a wave of sorrow wave |
[03:11.51] |
|
[03:14.22] |

[03:17.46] |
For they shall inherit what's left of the earth |
[03:21.22] |
Blessed are the kings who have left their thrones |
[03:24.11] |
They are blessed in this valley of dry bones |
[03:27.23] |
|
[03:28.16] |
Blessed all of you with an empty heart |
[03:31.48] |
For you have nothing from which you cannot part |
[03:35.10] |
Blessed is the ego if it's all we got this hour |
[03:38.69] |
Blessed is the voice that speaks truth to power |
[03:42.08] |
Blessed is the sex worker's body sold tonight |
[03:45.34] |
She works for what she's got |
[03:46.87] |
To save her children's life |
[03:49.15] |
Blessed are the deaf who cannot hear a scream |
[03:52.53] |
Blessed are the stupid who can dream |
[03:55.96] |
Blessed are the tin can cardboard slums |
[03:59.39] |
And blessed is the spirit that overcomes |
