Well, i am surprised that this topic hasn't come up yet, so i'm gonna start the ball rolling. I have listened to the crappy webstream versions of the song and have concluded that there is no hope of working out the lyrics from that. I decided to download the cleaned up version but only got about half way through before the usual 'Transfer Error' message came up. So i only know about half of the lyrics and i reckon we should all try to lend our suggestions and if we manage to figure it out in it's entirity, i'll send it to the guy over at the lyrics archive. Anyway, this is as far as i got...

U2- Always.

Here today, gone tomorrow,
Crack the bone, get to the marrow,
To be the bee and the flower,
Before the sweetness turns to sour.
(? Something in Latin?)
Always.
What we've lost we don't need.
Always.
What is it that won't let you sleep?
Always.
Be the arrow and the target.
Put your head over the parapet.
Be uncool, yes be awkward.
Don't look in the obvious place,
the soul needs beauty for ???.
Get down off your holy cloud.
Always.
God will not deal with the proud.
Always.
And if you dream then dream out loud.
Always.
Eternally yours.
Always.
I want you.
I want you.
I want you.
Talked to the man inside.
I wanted to be a man.
I wanted to come.
Lose the gum you know yourself.
Always.
Don't find yourself in someone else.
Always.
And always wear a safety belt.
Always.
Wait for me I'm running late.
Always.
This is the moment that we share.
Always.

Any suggestions/corrections?
 
There was another thread covering "Always" in the main forum -- I moved it over here. There you'll find what is probably the most accurate lyrics on the net so far.

Enjoy!
