Orden på Ullevi

Nedan följer en nästan komplett transkription av de ord som sades och sjöngs på Ullevi Stadion den 29 juli 2005 i Göteborg, när U2 besökte Sverige på sin Vertigo-turné.Sammanställningen gjordes av Mårten och Karl Otto från dåvarande redaktionen på u2.se.

Intro

– Don’t know what’s going on in Gothenburg.

– We surrender!

– Oh cha

Hello hello!
(Hello hello!)

Hello hellooo!
(Hello hellooo!)

– Alright Edge!

VERTIGO

Uno, dos, tres, catorce

Lights go down
It’s dark, the jungle is
Your head can’t rule your heart
I’m feeling so much stronger
Than I thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
It can’t be bought
Your mind can wander

Hello, hello
(¡Hola!)
I’m at a place called Vertigo
(¿Dónde está?)
It’s everything I wish I didn’t know
Except you give me something
I can feel, feeeel

The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They sparkle as the boys
Play rock and roll
They know that they can’t dance
At least they know

I can sell the beats
I’m asking for the check
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus around her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music

Hello, hello
(¡Hola!)
I’m at a place called Vertigo
(¿Dónde está?)
It’s everything I wish I didn’t know
But you give me something
I can feeeeel, feeeeel

Check mated
Hours of fun
The night is young

All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want
And no one gets….. hurt!

Hello, hello
(¡Hola!)
We’re at a place called Vertigo
(¿Dónde está?)
Lights go down, and all I know
Is that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel, kneel

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah!

– Oh my god, what have we here?

– I Will Follow

I WILL FOLLOW

I was on the outside when you said
You needed me
I was caught at the stop light
I was blinded and I could not see

A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by the hand
If he stops to think, he’ll always wonder why

Walk away, walk away
Walk away, walk away
I will follow.
Walk away, walk away
Walk away, walk away
I will follow.

I was on the inside
When they pulled the four walls down
You look through the window
I was lost, I am found.

Walk away, walk away
Walk away, walk away
I will follow.
If you walk away, walk away
Walk away, walk away
I will follow.

White flags at sunset
And we surrender
White flags in the land of the midnight sun
And we surrender
Your eyes make a circle
I see you when we’re coming here
Your eyes, your eyes
White flags in your eyes, in the white of your eyes

Walk away, walk away
Walk away, walk away
I will follow.
If you walk away, walk away
I walk away, walk away
I will follow.
I will follow.
I will follow.
I will follow.
Yeah
I might care (??)
If you walk away
I might care (??)

– Early songs..

– Oh cha, more presence, yeah

THE ELECTRIC CO.

Red running red…(play)… soul… boy… toy… sky… love… sing…
young and shy and you’re inside out, and you don’t know

– My fault

Electric Co.
If you don’t know
Electric Co. (Bono mumlar under Edges backupsång)

(Bono har problem med medhörningen och pratar med tekniker. Eventuellt byts en mikrofon – Bono slår mikrofonen mot handen som för att testa den)

– Excusez-moi
– Hello, alright

Red, running red
(- turn it down)
Play for real
So I can feel
Hold your head
Shot gun, shot blast, on my side
If you don’t know
The Electric Co.
If you don’t know.
Electric Co.
(- mumlar)

– Going up now!
(- mumlar)

Despite all my rage, like a rat in cage
Despite all my rage, like a rat in cage
Despite all my rage, it’s still like a rat in cage
Despite all my rage
Despite all my rage
(- Distortion)
Despite all my rage
Despite all my rage
Despite all my rage

If you don’t know
The Electric Co.
If you don’t know.
(- Sacrébleu ???)
Electric Co.
If you don’t know
Electric Co.
If you don’t know.
Elec-tri-c Co.

Despite all my rage, like a rat in cage
Despite all my rage

See me, feel me, touch me, heal me
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me, heal me!

– oh, hehe

– sexy people!

ELEVATION

Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)

(hoo hoo)
(hoo hoo)
(hoo hoo)
(hoo hoo)
(hoo hoo)

I can’t stand the rain
on my window
bringing that sweet melody
I can’t stand the rain

– sexy people

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here,
At the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips
Eclipse, you elevate my soul

Got no self-control
Digging like a mole
Now going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

(hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)

– Adam. You don’t wanna sing. Larry Mullen Jr?

A mole, digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)

A star lit up like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you could educate my mind
Explain all these controls
I can’t sing but I’ve got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, (elevation)

Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)

Love love love, lift me up out of these blues
Won’t you tell me something true
I believe in you

– The Edge

A mole, living in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high, elevation

Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo (hoo hoo)
Hoo hoo

NEW YEAR’S DAY

Yeah yeah

All is quiet on New Year’s Day
A world in white gets underway
I wanna be with you, be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year’s Day
On New Year’s Day

I… will be with you again
I… will be with you again

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, like the chosen few
White flags
under the blue (??)
Sing it’s true, it’s true…
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one.

I… I will begin again
I… I will begin again

Oooo oooo

– On the bass, Adam Clayton

I… will be with you again
I… will be with you again
I… will be with you again
I… will be with you again

– Made in the snow, made in Sweden

BEAUTIFUL DAY

The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground
But there’s no room, no space to rent in this town
You’re out of luck and the reason that you had to care,
The traffic is stuck and you’re not moving anywhere.
You thought you’d found a friend to take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand in return for grace

It’s a beautiful day, the sky falls
And you feel like it’s a beautiful day
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away

You’re on the road but you’ve got no destination
You’re in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town even if it doesn’t ring true
You’ve been all over and it’s been all over you

It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
It’s a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away

Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case, no

See the world in green and blue
White flags all over you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
See the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colours came out

It was a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
Beautiful day

Touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me, I know I’m not a hopeless case

What you don’t have you don’t need it now
What you don’t know you can feel it somehow
What you don’t have you don’t need it now
You don’t need it now, you don’t need it now

Beautiful day
– To the heart (???)
– Fantastisk kväll
– Fantastisk kväll
– Fantastisk dag

Yeah, yeah, yeah

We’re Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
We hope will enjoy the show
Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sit back and let the evening go

Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band
Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band

Blackbird singing in the dead of night
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see
All your life
You have just been waiting for this moment to arrive

– wow, tack så mycket, thank you

– Just wanna say thank you for… for coming out to see us. Thank you for… giving us a.. uh, great life. Tack så mycket.

– The life of our band is just beginning.

I STILL HAVEN’T FOUND WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR

I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run, I have crawled
I have scaled these city walls
These city walls
Only to be with you

But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her finger tips
Burning like fire
I was burning inside her

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for

– You sing

(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)

– Take us to church now

(- Sometimes I wanna see on the sides, Bruce)

I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I’m still running

You broke the bonds
And you loosed the chains
Carried the cross took (??) my shame
Oh took the blame, you know I believe it

But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for

– Sing for us

(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)
(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)
(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)
(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)
(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)
(But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for)

[ALL I WANT IS YOU]
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you

You say you’ll give me a highway with no-one on it
Treasure, just to look upon it
All the riches in the night

You say you’ll give me eyes in the moon of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
All the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
All I want is you

You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
All I want is you

All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is you
All I want is (you) (you)
All I want is (you)
All I want is you
All I need is (you)
All I want is (you)
All I want is (you)
All I want is (you)
All I want is (you)
All I need is (you)
All I want is (you)

If you wear that velvet dress

– Where are the blessings (???)

CITY OF BLINDING LIGHTS

The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then than I do now

Neon heart dayglo eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They’re advertising in the skies
For people like us

And I miss you when you’re not around
I’m getting ready to leave the ground

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh – you – look – so – beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Don’t look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs purple irises
The camera can’t see

I’ve seen you walk unafraid
I’ve seen you in the clothes you made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

And I miss you when you’re not around
I’m getting ready to leave the ground

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh

Oh – you – look – so – beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time
Time
Time, time
Won’t leave me as I am
But time won’t take the boy out of this man

Oh – you – look – so – beautiful tonight
Oh – you – look – so – beautiful tonight
Oh – you – look – so – beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

The more you know the less you feel
Some pray for others steal
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel luckily

Luckily
Yeah, luckliy

Oh, the last to know (???)
Oh, Gothenburg
On the river
Yeah in Gothenburg

– Was telling some people this week, um, those four notes… five notes…hehe, those four notes just give… give me a lot of faith in the future. And I think about this song as… a… song about the future. About science, and the scientist who dream up the future and the doctors and the nurses who keep us alive… to be in the future. So this is Miracle Drug.

MIRACLE DRUG

I want to trip inside your head
Spend the day there
To hear the things you haven’t said
And see what you might see

I want to hear you when you call
Do you feel anything at all?
I want to see your thoughts take shape
And walk right out

This freedom has a scent
Like the top of a new born baby’s head

The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I’ve seen enough I’m not giving up
On a miracle drug

Of science and the human heart
There is no limits
There is no failure here sweetheart
Just when you quit

I am you and you are mine
Love makes no sense of space
And time will disappear
Love and logic keep us clear
Reason is on our side, lo-o-o-ve

The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I’ve had enough of romantic love
I’d give it up
Yeah, I’d give it up
For a miracle
a miracle drug

– Sing with me

Oooo (oooo)
Yooo (yoooo)
Yooo (yooo)
Yooo (yooo)
Yooo Ooo (yoo ooo)
Yooooooooo (yooo)
Yooooooooo (yooo)

God I need your help tonight

(Edge)
Beneath the noise
Below the din
I hear your voice
It’s whispering
In science and in medicine
I was a stranger
You took me in

(Bono)
The songs are in your eyes
I see them when you smile
I’ve had enough of romantic love
Yeah, I’d give it up, yeah, I’d give it up
For a miracle
Miracle drug
Miracle
Miracle drug
Miracle drug
Miracle drug

– Hold on a second The Edge

– Uh, well, this one.. my.. my father was a working class Dublin man who loved the opera. He used to stand in front of my… our stereo when I was a kid and he would conduct the stereo with my mother’s knitting needles. And… he was a tough guy and… this is…. this is for Bob.

SOMETIMES YOU CAN’T MAKE IT ON YOUR OWN

Tough, you think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

We fight all the time
You and I that’s alright
We’re the same soul
I don’t need I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Yeah, yeah, yeah
I know that we don’t talk
I’m sick of it all
Can – you – hear – me – when – I –
Sing, you’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me

Well, hey now
Still got to let you know
A house doesn’t make a home
Don’t leave me here alone…

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Sometimes you can’t make it
The best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Take me back to the black hills
The black hills of Dakota
To the beautiful Indian country that I love

LOVE AND PEACE OR ELSE

Lay down
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground
Lay your love on the track
We’re gonna break the monster’s back
Oohoho
Lay down your treasure
Lay it down now brother
You don’t have time
For a jealous lover

As you enter this life
I pray you depart
With a wrinkled face
And a brand new heart

I don’t know if I can make it
I’m not easy on my knees
Here’s my heart, why don’t you take it

I need some release, release, release, release

We need
Love and peace
Love and peace

Oohoho
Lay it
Lay down
Lay down your guns
All your daughters of Zion
All your Abraham’s sons

I don’t know if I can make it
I’m not easy on my knees
Here’s my heart, why don’t you take it
I need some release, release, release, release

We need
Love and peace
Love and peace

Baby don’t fight
We can talk this thing through
Between me and you (???)
I call or you’ll phone
The TV is still on
But the sound is turned down
And the troops on the ground
Are about to dig in

And I’m wondering where is the love?
Where is the love?
Love and peace
Ohh

SUNDAY BLOODY SUNDAY

I can’t believe the news today
I can’t close my eyes and make it go away.
How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
’Cos tonight
We can be as one, tonight.

Broken bottles under children’s feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street.
But I won’t heed the battle call
It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall.

Sunday, bloody Sunday.
Sunday, bloody Sunday.
Sunday, bloody Sunday.
Oh, let’s go.

And the battle’s just begun
There’s many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trenches dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart.

Sunday, bloody Sunday.
Sunday, bloody Sunday.

How long, how long must we sing this song?
How long, how long?
’Cos tonight
We can be as one, tonight.
Tonight, tonight, tonight, tonight, _??_

– These are grafitti. Sprayed on a wall. Says ”coexist”. Co – e – xist. Not a problem in Gothenburg right?

– Jesus, jew, Muhammed – it’s true. Jesus, jew, Muhammed – it’s true. All sons of Abraham. All sons of Abraham.

Father Abraham
Father Abraham
Father Abraham
Who is to blame
Father Abraham
Send down the rain
Father Abraham
What have we done
Father Abraham
Speak to your sons
Tell them no more
No more
Tell them
No more
Tell them
(No more)
No more
(No more)
No more
(No more)
No more no more
No more no more

Whipe your tears away
Whipe your tears away
Whipe your tears away

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday

– Sing it now.
– Shout it!

And it’s true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
__??__ undone.. on

Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday, bloody Sunday
Sunday

– _??_

BULLET THE BLUE SKY

In the howlin’ wind
Comes a stingin’ rain
See it drivin’ nails
Into the souls on the tree of pain

From the firefly
A red orange glow
See the face of fear
Runnin’ scared in the valley below

Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

In the locust wind
Comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel
And the angel was overcome

You plant a demon seed
You raise a flower of fire
We see them burnin’ crosses
See the flames, higher and higher

Woh, woh, bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue sky
Bullet the blue
Bullet the blue

Johnny comes marchin home again, hurrah, hurrah
Johnny comes marchin home home
I want go home, home, home
I wanna
I wanna go home

Please, please, get up off your knees now please
Ooooh, America
These are the hands that built America
Johnny comes marchin home again, hurrah, hurrah
Johnny comes marchin home again, hurrah, hurrah
No matter what they are saying
No matter what you hear
As long as Johnny comes home safely here
Johnny come home
Safe home _??_

– We’d like to dedicate this to all the people who lost their lives in London and Turkey and Middle East to bombs, nails, hatred, misunderstanding. And our prayer, if we can turn this song into a prayer. Our prayer is that we do not become a monster in order to defeat a monster. That’s our prayer.

MISS SARAJEVO

Is there a time for keeping your distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
For getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
Is there time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes
Just like the rain
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to run for cover
A time for kiss and tell
A time for different colours
Different names you find so hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for synagogue
Is there time to turn to Mecca
Beauty queen before God

Here she comes
Beauty plays the clown
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

Dici che il fiume
Trova la via al maare
E come il fiume
Giungerai a me
Oltre i confini
E le terre assetate
Dici che come fiume
Come fiume
L’amore giungera
L’amore
E non so pi pregare
E nell’amore non so pi sperare
E quell’amore non so pi aspettare

Is there a time for changing values
A time to wear a blind
Is there a time for keeping you mouth shut
Or a time for human rights

– Human rights – the right to live like a human

– 3. Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.

– 4. No one shall be held in slavery or servitude; slavery and the slave trade shall be prohibited in all their forms.

– 5. No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.

– 6. Everyone has the right to recognition everywhere as a person before the law.

PRIDE (IN THE NAME OF LOVE)

One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come here to justify
One man to overthrow

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

One man caught on a barbed wire act (??)
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
This god betrayed with a kiss

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

Love love
Love
Love

In the evening, April four
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

– This song was written for Martin Luther King. And his dream still lives on. Not an just American dream or a European dream. Also an Asian dream, but most especially in this time, an African dream. An African dream. Sing…

– This is our moment. Doing what’s right. With the chairty of the old Live Aid. Now we want justice – the new Live 8. From dropping the dept, trade justice, to make poverty history. The journey of equality, equality, the journey moves on. On!

WHERE THE STREETS HAVE NO NAME

Oh, Africa
Oh, Africa
Oh

I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold us tonight
I wanna reach out
Touched by the flame
Where the streets have no name

I wanna feel sunlight on my face.
I see the dust cloud
Disappear without a trace.
I wanna take shelter
From sorrow and the pain (???)
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It’s all I can do

The city’s a flood, and our love turns to rust.
We’re beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I’ll show you a place
Time time (???)
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name

We’re still building and burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It’s all I can do

Oh Africa
Love love love

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building and burning down love
We’re burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It’s all I can do

– We should make a… oh you know something about these things. Maybe this is the moment, Bruce, to turn off those lights over there and take out cell phones. Turn this place into a christmas tree. Wanna try? You’re the light in the world.

– Wow.

– Oh, you look beautiful tonight.

– Umm. Everywhere we go, we say the same things. We talk about equality, we talk about Africa. We talk about how 3000 africans, mostly children, die every day of a mosquito bite. The start of the 21st century, we’re gonna say no to that. This is not everywhere we go. This is the great country of Sweden where you already know what we’re talking about and I want to salute you and we wanna thank you. Because Sweden is about to lead the world in generosity, and charity and justice, commiting to one per cent of your GDP… over and above 0.7. It’s a incredible thing and I wanna thank you for giving your politicians the permission to spend your money. Thank you, Gothenburg.

– I wanna thank Carin Jämtin, your development minister, is very cool and Leif Pagrotsky who also, people who have been fighting this fight. We’ve so much more work to do. But I’m not gonna tell the people of Sweden what to do. You can tell me. We are your servants tonight. One. One.

ONE

Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same?
Will it make it easier on you
Now you got someone to blame?
You say
(One love)
One life
One need in the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you darling
If you don’t care for it

Did I disappoint you
or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love and
You want me to go without.
Well, it’s too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We’re one
But we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One

One per cent

Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your head
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it’s all I got
We’re one
But we’re notthe same
Well, we hurt each other
Then we do it again

You say love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love the higher law
You ask me to enter
But then you make me crawl
And I can’t be holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love
One blood
One life
You got to do what you should
One life
With each other
These are my sisters
You are my brothers
One life
But we’re not the same
We get to carry each other
Carry each other
One
One

When the rain comes
They run and hide their heads
When the rain comes
They run and hide their heads

Do you hear us coming lord?
Do you hear us call?
Do you hear us knocking?
We’re knocking at your door
Do you Hear us coming lord?
Do you Hear us call?
Do you Hear us scratching?
We’re scratching at your door
Oooh hooo

RAIN

When the rain comes
They run and hide their heads
They might as well be dead
When the rain comes
When the rain comes

Rain, I don’t mind.

– What an amazing night! Fantastisk kväll!

ZOO STATION

I’m ready, I’m ready for laughing gas
I’m ready, I’m ready for what’s next.
I’m ready to duck, ready to dive
Ready to say I’m glad to be alive
I’m ready, I’m ready for the rain yeah.

In the cool of the night, in the warmth of the breeze
I’ll be crawling around on my hands and knees.
Zoo Station.
Zoo Station.

I’m ready, I’m ready for the gridlock
I’m ready to take it to the street.
Ready for the shuffle, ready for the deal
Ready to let go of the steering wheel.
I’m ready, for the crush.

Zoo Station.
Zoo Station
Zoo Station

Alright, alright, alright, alright, alright
It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright,
Hey baby, hey baby, hey baby, hey baby,
It’s alright, it’s alright.

Time is a train makes the future the past
Leaves you standing in the station
Your face pressed up against the glass.

Zoo Station
Zoo Station
Gonna be there
I’m just down the line
Gonna be there
I’ll make it on time

THE FLY

No secret that the stars are falling from the sky
No secret that our world is in darkness tonight.
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by the moon
Y’ know I don’t see you when she walks in the room.

No secret that a friend is someone who lets you help.
No secret that a liar won’t believe anyone else.
They say a secret is something you tell someone else
So I’m telling you.

Edge:
Love, we shine like a
Burning star
We’re falling from
The sky… tonight

Bono:
A man will beg
A man will crawl
On the sheer face of love
Like a fly on a wall
It’s no secret at all

No secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest.
And a secret ambition bites the nails of success.
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief;
All kill their inspiration and sing about the grief.

Edge:
Love, we shine like a
Burning star
We’re falling from
The sky… tonight

Bono:
A man will rise
A man will fall
From the sheer face of love
like a fly from a wall.
It’s no secret at all.

Billy Boola! Billy Boola! Boola! Boola!

Edge+Bono:
Love, we shine like a burning star
We’re falling from the sky tonight

Bono:
A man will rise
A man will fall
From the sheer face of love
like a fly from a wall.
It’s no secret at all.

No secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding ’cos-a one man’s fucking lie.
Look I gotta go, yeah, I’m running outta change;
There’s a lot of things if I could I’d rearrange.
Oh yeah! Oh yeah!

WITH OR WITHOUT YOU

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side.
I wait for you.
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
I’m waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you.

Through the storm, we reach the shore
You gave it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you…

With or without you
With or without you.
I can’t live with or without you.
Yeah, you.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

My hands are tied, my body bruised
She got me with nothing to win
And nothing else to lose.

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, and you give
And you give yourself away.

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you.

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you.

(Går mot Celine)

(Pekar på Celine)

(Celine hoppar upp på scenen)

-Good night!

(Celine och Bono dansar)

(Bono går ner på knä och kysser Celine på handen)

(Celine svävar ner i publiken)

Wooohhh!

-Thank you! Thank you to the Soundtrack of Our Lives. Incredible! Thank you to Razorlight. Extraordinary group. Thank you for coming out! God bless you, good night!


-Let’s start again.

-Come on the Edge. The neighbourhood, think about the neighbourhood! Haha! Ha!

-Hello!

ALL BECAUSE OF YOU

I was born a child of grace
Nothing else about the place
Everything was ugly but your beautiful face
And it left me no illusions

I saw you in the curve of the moon
In the shadow cast across my room
You heard me in my tune
When I just heard confusion

All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am

I like the sound of my own voice
I didn’t give anyone else a choice
An intellectual tortoise
Racing with your bullet train

Some people get squashed crossing the tracks
Some people got high rises on their backs
I’m not broke but you can see the cracks
You can make me perfect again

All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am

I’m alive
I’m being born
I just arrived, I’m at the door
Of the place I started out from
And I want back inside

All because of you
All because of you
All because of you
I am

PARTY GIRL

I know a girl
A girl called Party, Party Girl.
I know she wants more than a party, Party Girl.
But she won’t tell me her name. Oh no, not me.

I know a boy
A boy called Trampoline
You know what I mean.
I know a girl
A girl called Party, Party Girl.
And soon she wants more than a party, Party Girl.
But she won’t tell me her name. Oh no, not me.

(Edge sjunger först utan mic)
I know a boy
A boy called Trash, Trash Can.
I know he does all that he can, wham bam.
And he won’t tell me his name. Oh no, not me.

(Edge solo)

I know a girl
A girl called Party, Party Girl.
I know she wants more than a party, Party Girl.
I know a boy
A boy called Trampoline
You know what I mean.
I think I know what he wants
I think I know what he wants
I think I know what he wants.
I think I know, what he wants.

Thank you very much! (???)

-Dorena, that’s for you darling.

VERTIGO

Ett, två, tre, fjorton!

Lights go down
It’s dark, the jungle is
Your head can’t rule your heart
I’m feeling so much stron-ger
Than I thought
Your eyes are wide
And though your soul
It can’t be bought
Your mind can wander

Hello, hello
(¡Hola!)
I’m at a place called Vertigo
(¿Dónde está?)
It’s everything I wish I didn’t know
Except you give me something
I can feel, feeeel

The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They sparkle as the boys
Play rock and roll
They know that they can’t dance
At least they know

I can sell the beats
I’m asking for the check
The girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus around her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music

Hello, hello
(¡Hola!)
I’m at a place called Vertigo
(¿Dónde está?)
It’s everything I wish I didn’t know
But you give me something
I can feeeeel, feeeeel

Once more ???
You took plane home ???
Hours of fun
You’re a dancing queenie tonight

All this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
All of this, all of this can be yours
Just give me what I want
Give it to me!

Hello, hello (¡Hola!)
We’re at a place called Vertigo (¿Dónde está?)
Rain comes down, and all I know
Is that you give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel, kneel

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah,

Yeah, yeah-oo,

Ohohohoho!

Ahahaha!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Aha! Aha!
Rock, rock, rockaway beach!
Rock, rock, rockaway beach!
Rock, rock, rockaway beach!

Hej då!
