Similar Lyrics in Walk On and Pink Floyd's Eclipse

[Giant Lemon]

I was listening to Dark Side of the Moon yesterday (which I hadn't listened to in a while), and I realized that the song Eclipse is pretty similar to the end of Walk On. Here are the lyrics:

All that you touch and all that you see
All that you taste, all you feel
And all that you love and all that you hate
All you distrust, all you save
And all that you give and all that you deal
And all that you buy, beg, borrow or steal
And all you create and all you destroy
And all that you do and all that you say
And all that you eat and everyone you meet
And all that you slight and everyone you fight
And all that is now and all that is gone
And all that's to come and everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon


After reading that I want to sing "you gotta leave it behind..." Not that I think U2 was in any way trying to copy Pink Floyd- I just thought the similarities were interesting. Any thoughts?

They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
You know I don't see you when she walks in the room
