U2

   






    The first time I know this band is this live version of this song. In this concert (live in boston 2001),

the lead singer, Bono, invite a girl on the stage. He then lay down with that girl and sang to her. It is

really romantic and touching. When the song went to the  chorus, the heart shaped stage appeared. The

girl who was invited to the stage  was really the luckiest girl!!!!
 
 
   


    U2  are an Irish rock band from Dublin, formed in 1976. They won 22 Grammy rewards. This is

more then any other bands. Their lyrics of the songs are really meaninful and often reflects the

problems of society, such as they sang '' Where the streets have no name '' in 2002 super bowl game to

the 911 victims. They really brought significent influence to the world from their music.


Here are the two songs' lyrics. Hope you will like it!!


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

And I wait without you


With or without you

With or without you


Through the storm we reach the shore

You give 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


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's got me with nothing to win

and nothing left to lose 


Where the streets have no name

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then 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 aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind

Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, and I see love
See our love turn to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
