So Cruel is such an emotional song... it's unlike any other U2 song out there, and without it, Achtung Baby wouldn't be complete.
Ahh-hoooo....love... you say in love, there are no rules...
Ahh-hoooo... love... sweetheart, you're so cruel...
She wears my love like a see-through dress,
her lips say one thing, her movements something else - oh love...
like a screaming flower,
love, dying ever hour... love...
and you don't know if it's fear or desire...
danger the drug that takes you higher...
head in heaven, fingers... in the mire...
her heart is racing, you can't keep up...
the night is bleeding like a cut...
between the horses of love and lust, we are trampled... underfoot.
*shiver*
That song's written like poetry, and flows like a fine wine... at least it does to me.
