i even did a search on my comp! cuz i have all the lyrics printed out cuz of my site...maybe i got the lyrics for kite wrong :scratch:

actually, i checked, i have them listed, i remember i searched for "shadow behind your eyes" and nothing came up. wtf? *kicks comp for making her look like an ass* :wink:
:eeklaugh:
 
Several of zillions...I'll try to use quirky ones that just remind me of, well...me.

*It's not where you're running, but where you're going
It's not what you're dreaming, but what you're gonna do
It's not where you're born but where you belong
It's not how weak but what will make you strong
(Got me through some bad times)

*Don't whisper
Don't talk
Don't run if you can walk
Don't cheat, compete
Don't miss the one beat
(Reminds me of my synchronized skating days!!:hyper: )

*I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm til you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all
(Um...my life from last September until this summer...)

*If you should ask then maybe they'd
Tell you what I would say
True colors fly in blue and black
(What I would like to say to some people...)

*He said he was an artist
But he really painted billboards
In large capital letters
Large capital letters
(Makes me giggle...I think I met this guy in a bar one time...)

*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 a soulmate
(I LOVE THIS VERSE! I can embrace my uncoolness, my awkwardness!!)

*I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will bleed into one
Bleed into one
Well yes I?m still running
(Kinda explains my ideas on religion)

*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
The wheels are turing but you?re upside down
(I just generally love the imagery, and the lack of identity)

And these are leaving out the last, oh, five songs on Achtung Baby, as well as most of The Unforgettable Fire, The Joshua Tree, and ATYCLB!!
 
Wow, Schmeg, those were really cool.

I recognized a good chunk of the lyrics, but not all. Care to specify the songs? I am more of a late-80's, 90's U2er, so am not as familiar with the pre-JT stuff.

Some of the lyrics I really liked and would love to know the correlating song!

Thanks! :cute:

No problem!!!

The songs are, in order of how I listed them:
Summer Rain
Numb
Stuck In a Moment
Bad
Walk to the Water
Always
I Still Haven't Found...(I'm sure you got that one:wink: )
Stay

There are a truckload of U2 songs that got me through the last year of my life...that explains my chronic listening/reading/messageboard habits...these are just a few snippets. :wave:
