Everyone's changing, I stay the same
I'm… a solo cello outside a chorus
I've got a secret,
It's time for me to tell it
You've been keeping me warm

To sweet beginnings and bitter endings
In coffee city, we borrowed heaven
Don't give it back, I've never felt so wanted
Are you taking me home?

You tell me you have to go…

(chorus)
In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody needs to know

Now that you've loved me, there's no returning
I keep comparing, you're always wining
I try to be strong but you'll never be more wanted
Will you make me a home?

Don't tell me you have to go...

(chorus)
In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody needs to know

Ya da... ya da... ya da

To sweet beginnings and bitter endings
In coffee city, we borrowed heaven
Don't give it back
Winter is coming and I need to stay warm

The heat.....

(chorus)
In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine
I kiss you, and nobody knows

(chorus)
In the heat of summer sunshine
I miss you like nobody else
In the heat of summer sunshine

She lived like she knew, nothing lasts
Didn't care to look like anyone else
And she was beautiful, so beautiful
I still hear her laugh like she's here

Shower it down on all the young
It isn't so wrong to have such fun forever

Forever angel
I hope they love you like we do
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you, be like you
(I'll be proud to be like you)

Does the sun shine up at you when you're looking down?
Do you get along with the others around?

It's got to be better than before
You don't need to worry now you're gone

Forever angel
I hope they love you like we do forever
Angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Be like you
Just like you

And when I go to sleep at night
I'll thank you for each blessed thing surrounding me
For every fall I'll ever break
Each moment's breath I wanna taste
Confidence and conscience, decadent extravagance,
Never ending providence
For loving when I had the chance

Angel
I hope they love you like we do
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Forever angel
I'll be proud to be like you
Be like you

. . .



It's time to change, throw out the books and start again
Breaking all the rules, fall on your face don't be ashamed
You can't waste more time
Cause you've been gone for far too long
Trapped in his arms
Safe without harm
Follow your heart, don't be afraid

You think that you're OK
But I don't believe in what you say
You think that it's too late
But it's not good, good enough for you

Don't hideaway
Cause I know you've got what it takes
I believe you can be what you wanna be

Let yourself go
Don't you worry about a thing
Breaking the chains
So hard to begin
Follow your heart
Don't be afraid

You think that you're OK
But it's not good, good enough for you

Don't hide away
Cause I know you've got what it takes
I believe you can be what you wanna be

Don't hide away
Cause I know you've got, got what it takes
And I believe you can be what you wanna be

Don't hide away
Cause I know you've got what it takes
I believe you can be what you wanna be

. . .



It doesn't really matter now you're gone
You never were around that much to speak of
Didn't think I could live without you baby
It couldn't be that hard to live alone
But I'm all, all alone again
Thinking you'll never say
that you'll be home again

And it's gonna be a long night
And it's gonna be cold without your arms
And I'm gonna get stage fright caught in the headlights
It's gonna be a long night
And I know I'm gonna lose this fight

Once upon a time we fell in love
And I thought that I would be the only one

But I'm on, I'm on my own again
Thinking you'll never show
You won't be home again

And it's gonna be a long night
And it's gonna be cold without your arms
And I'm gonna get stage fright caught in the headlights
It's gonna be a long night
And I know I'm gonna lose this fight

Lost in your arms baby
Lost in your arms

Now I'm all on my own again
Thinking you'll never show
You won't be home again

And it's gonna be a long night
And it's gonna be cold without your arms
And I'm gonna get stage fright caught in the headlights
It's gonna be a long night
And I know I'm gonna lose this fight
I'm gonna get stage fright caught in the headlights

It's gonna be a long night
And I know I'm gonna lose this fight
I'm lost in your arms baby

. . .



(Verse 1)
I never thought one day you'd be gone away forever more
No one can say, no one could explain why you were taken
Oooo where are you now (where are you now)
Could I get there somehow

(Chorus)
It's time to say goodbye
Block out the sun and pack up the sky
Don't let my tears start to make you cry
Each time I try to say my goodbye
Try to stop asking why

(Verse 2)
Tell me it's true tell me there's something more
Another time for love
One day I'll know, one day I'll be there
Will you be waiting

(Bridge)
Ooo where you are now
Could I get there somehow

(Chorus)
Try to stop asking why

(Bridge)

It's time to say goodbye
Block out the sun and pack up the sky
Don't let my tears start to make you cry
Each time I try to say my goobye
I try to stop asking why
Why---ieeee

. . .


Written by Bono, Gavin Friday, & Maurice Seezer

Let's read the trees and their Autumn leaves
As they fall like a dress undone
At the end of summers love will find lovers
Who need the shadows of a winter sun

Don't tell me you're leaving we can hide in the evening
It's getting darker than it should
If we read the leaves as they blow in the breeze
Would it stop us now, my love

Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears

The moon is milk and the sky where it's split
Is magic, and we all need to believe we can
Wake in the dreams, it's not as hard as it seems
You know its harder to leave

Time enough for being braver
Time enough for all the fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears

I heard you say underneath your breath
Some kind of prayer
I heard you say underneath your breath that
You never want to feel this way about anybody else

Time enough for hard questions
Time enough for all our fears
Time is tougher than we both know yet
Time enough for tears

Time enough for being braver
Time enough I love this time of year
Time is tough, its running away from us
Time enough for tears
Time enough for tears


. . .



Hey you're too true to be good
And I'm too bad to pretend
Transparent and transfixed, I'm uncool

Heart beat you're looking at me
Must stop I'm letting you see
This isn't how I want it to be

I have visions like no other
So romantic you'll discover

I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone

Fall asleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes

(I wanna)

This is every girl's dream
No milk left for your tea
Baby's crying louder than me
Who lost the keys of your car
Sorry that would be me
I'd wake up only I'm not asleep

I have daydreams of another
So romantic you'll discover

I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone

Fall asleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes

(I wanna)
(I wanna)

I have visions like no other
So romantic you'll discover

I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone

Fall asleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes

I wanna take you for granted
Drift while you're talking
Bathe while you're downstairs
And chat on the phone

Fall asleep before bedtime
Pass in the hallway
Forget your birthday
And shrink all your clothes

(I wanna)
(I wanna)


. . .



For what it's worth I think there's nobody like you
You've got grace got a heart beating and despite you're fun
As I grew up I was terrified of darkness
Now you're around I've no reason to be frightened

'Cause even if the sun came tumbling down
you light the ground I walk on
Even if the moon fell out of the sky
You light the ground I walk on

Now that you're mine I can't picture life without you
You're my friend
You're my lover wanna bite you

'Cause even if the sun came tumbling down
You light the ground I walk on
Even if the moon fell out of the sky
You light the ground I walk on

The world goes on spinning and I can't retrace
My heady footsteps to this place
I'm in heaven right now
And I don't want to come down

'Cause even if the sun came tumbling down
You light the ground I walk on
Even if the moon fell out of the sky
You light the ground I walk on

Now we're alone gonna show how much I need you
Kiss you so you won't ever wanna leave me

'Cause even if the sun came tumbling down
You light the ground I walk on
Even if the moon fell out of the sky
You light the ground I walk on

'Cause even if the sun came tumbling down
You light the ground I walk on
Even if the moon fell out of the sky

All beauty, all fade away.........borrowed
All moonlight, returned to day....borrowed

(borrowed, borrowed, borrowed, borrowed)

All sunrise, all shooting stars....borrowed
All earthbound, barefeet and play
I know we're standing on,

Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven

All heartache, all rivers cry....borrowed
Don't stay out too late tonight.......borrowed
I lovey you, don't want to hide........borrowed
You taste like, paradise,
I know I'm breathing in,

Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven

You gave me life and I will give it back
But before I do, I'm gonna hold you tight
This is my prayer....

Ooh, oh oh ooh, oh oh ooh oh

(Violin Solo)

All body, all skin, all bone......borrowed
All silky, all smooth and warm....borrowed
All pleasure, all pain are one....borrowed
Almighty I stand alone,
I know I'm living in,

(Ladysmith Black Mambazo)
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven

Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven
Borrowed, borrowed....Heaven

What a day, that I've left behind
You forgave, said I've done my time
I've been good, and nationwide, sisterhood
Can I find that

Love, not anymore
I don't feel it, I'm not hopeless, tragic,
No, nothing, no more to stay
I've got freedom, no more, calling

I don't care (I don't care)
I walk away (walk way)
'Coz I've got confidence for quiet,
I'm not afraid

I'm not hungry, no I'm overfed
Satisfied, with the life I led
And then, all, to where you can see
What is me, well it's just for

Me, mine, end of the line
You won't hear it, crash it, silent
You're all gone, gone, left me behind
It's just freedom, no one, calling

I don't care (I don't care)
I walk away (I gonna walk way)
'Coz I've got confidence for quiet,
I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)

No, nothing, no more to stay
Is this freedom, no one, calling,
I don't care....
(Nothing know what it seems in freedom)

I don't care (I don't care)
I walk away (I'm walk way)
'Coz I've got confidence for quiet,
I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)

I don't care (I don't care)
I walk away (I walk way)
'Coz I've got confidence for quiet,
I'm not afraid (I'm not afraid)


. . .



Maybe deep down inside, you don't believe it
Your wailing wall isn't weeping, at all
And you're not worthy of adoration

You're scared that, somebody somewhere's gonna find a berth to pike
And as fast as they bow down they leave you behind

But baby be brave, 'coz what's the point of it all,
What's the point of it all, yeah
Baby don't blow it, tell me what's it all for,
If you're not terrified to fail

Are you terrified to fail....yeah yeah yeah

Way far down below, you don't feel it (yeah, don't feel it)
Yeah, everyone knows, we don't believe it,
The pain of a popstar you're breaking my heart

But baby be brave, 'coz what's the point of it all,
What's the point of it all, yeah
Baby don't blow it, tell me what's it all for.
If you're not terrified to fail....

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail
(It's your fear that makes you worthy)

I, know, what you're doing,
'Coz, God I've been tempted,
You are, drowned, it is special to
Ignore till lies arrive

What's the point of it all

Baby be brave, 'coz what's the point of it all,
what's the point of it all, yeah
Baby don't blow it, tell me what's it all for.
If you're not terrified to fail

(Confide in me, tell your story)
Are you terrified to fail
(It's your fear that makes you worthy)
I am terrified to fail
(Confide in me, tell your story)
I am terrified to fail

You let an open window
Breathe over your bed
A whisper in the moonlight
The miracle of life
Synchronized emotion
No battle left to fight
Harmony in motion
The miracle of life

And oh precious and lonely you are
Cherish as only you are
Not born but already
Changing our world
Beautiful girl
Beautiful boy

(You're a beautiful, wonderful miracle)

I want for you the ocean
Filled deep with all your dreams
No feeling left unopened
The miracle of life

And oh precious and lonely you are
Cherish as only you are
Not born but already
Changing our world
Beautiful boy
Beautiful girl

(You're a beautiful, wonderful miracle)

Oh precious and lonely you are
Cherish as only you are
Not born but already
Changing our world
Beautiful boy
Beautiful girl

(You're a beautiful, wonderful miracle)

And when it comes to lovin' we'll give you all we've got
Beginning at the bottom we're never gonna stop
