Thanks for that!
So then... I suppose there is still the chance that my theory that Bono's vocal version could end up in Spider-man is possible.
Actually, it sounded more in the vein of Songs of Ascent material to me. The lyrics from what I could hear sounded like a spiritual man talking to his maker and later on, his lover. It is kind of like a prayer almost I guess you could say.
Here is my updated take on the lyrics, with a fair bit of guessing of course.
Thank You For The Day (2006 Beach Clip Version, 04:15 min)
[Verse 1] (00:24 - 00:47)
Thank you for these unanswered questions
Thank you for a man with new directions
Thank you for the day
And finding peace you know what thou art, the reflection
[Verse 2] (00:49 - 01:10)
Thank you for skies, those blue eyes
Thank you, for those hearts were, in time
Thank you for rain, that you are part of me
And I know you will be mine
[Prechorus 1] (01:12 - 01:22)
Now, we don't know
Then, will we know?
[Chorus 1] (01:22 - 01:51)
But in the night, we shall be gone
I'm on the bed, I know we hide
And in the night, We saw the sun
Thank you for the day, Oh oh ohoh
Thank you for the day, Oh oh ohoh
[Verse 3] (01:51 - 02:14)
Thank you for this earth and thank them, trees
Thank you for our love, that care you breach
Thank you for every heart that breaks
I know this brought me to my knees
[Prechorus 2] (02:18 - 02:25)
When will we know?
As it shall be known
[Chorus 2] (02:27 - 02:55)
But in the night, we shall be gone
I'm on the bed, I know we hide
And in the night, we saw the sun
Thank you for the day, Oh oh ohoh
Thank you for the day, Oh oh ohoh
[Instrumental middle-8] (02:57 - 03:18)
Ah, yeah, yeah, yeah... mmm
[Extended Chorus] (03:19 - 04:09)
But in the night, we shall be known
And through the day, that is overrun (over us?)
And through the night, we lose control
And in the dark, we love alone
And through the night, we love so cold
And through the days, oh long enough
In the night, we love the dark
And in the day, I'm holding on
