Actions speak louder than words

The First Time
by U2

I have a lover
A lover like no other
She got soul, soul, soul, sweet soul
And she teach me how to sing
Shows me colors when there's none to see
Gives me hope when I can't believe
That for the first time
I feel love

I have a brother
When I'm a brother in need
I spend my whole time running
He spends his running after me
When I feel myself going down
I just call and he comes around
But for the first time
I feel love

My father is a rich man
He wears a rich man's cloak
Gave me the keys to his kingdom coming
Gave me a cup of gold
He said I have many mansions
And there are many rooms to see
But I left by the back door
And I threw away the key
And I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key
Yeah, I threw away the key

For the first time
For the first time
For the first time
I feel love

And the fever
Getting higher
Desire
Desire
Burning...

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*

More Bono


You can run from love
And if it's really love it will find you
Catch you by the heel
But you can't be numb for love
The only pain is to feel nothing at all
How can I hurt when I'm holding you?

I could never take a chance
Of losing love to find romance
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman

And you're the one, there's no-one else
You make me want to lose myself
In the mysterious distance
Between a man and a woman*

Love and Peace or Else by U2

Lay down
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground

Lay your love on the track
You're gonna break the monster's back


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 break it

We need some release, release, release

We need love and peace

Love and peace


Lay down

Lay down your guns

All you daughters of Zion

All you Abraham 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 break it

I need some 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 can 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 wonder where is the love?

Where is the love?

Where is the love?

Love and Peace
