You roll your eyes to the sky
I close mine
You ask your questions why
I don’t mind

I know I’m moving in the wrong directions
Oh no making all the wrong connections

You lay your tracks on the ground
And follow them ‚round
I’ll build my house in the sand
Until the waves knock it down

I know I’m moving in the wrong directions
Making all the wrong connections

They say that love is a sound
And it follows you ‚round
Follows you ‚round
They say that sound is a drug
And I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough
I can’t get enough

I know it’s not enough to say I’m sorry, to say I’m sorry
I know it’s not enough to say I’m sorry, to say I’m sorry
I know I’m moving in the wrong directions
I know I’m moving in the wrong directions

U2 – Beautiful Day

31. Januar 2015


The heart is a bloom, shoots up through the stony ground
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

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

You can touch me, take me to that other place
Teach me love, I know I’m not a hopeless case

See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of 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
A beautiful day

You can touch me, touch me, take me to that other place
Yo can teach me love, 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

Gold, gold, golden star, star
Golden star, star
Beautiful girl, girl
Beautiful girl

Beautiful girl

She was waitin‘ at the station.
He was gettin‘ off the train.
He didn’t have a ticket.
So he had to bum through the barriers again.

Well, the ticket inspector saw him rushin‘ through.
He said, girl you don’t know how much i missed you, but
we better run, cause i havent got the funds to pay this ..
„Fine“ .. she said: „Fine“.

So they ran out of the station
and jumped onto a bus with
two of yesterdays travel cards
and two bottles of bud
and he said „You look well nice“.

Well, she was wearin a skirt
and he thought she looked nice
and yeah she didn’t really care about anything else,
because she only wanted him to think
that she looked nice and did.

But he was lookin‘ at her yeah
all funny in the eye.
She said: „C’mon boy tell me what you’re thinkin‘ now,
dont be shy“.

„Alright i’ll try ..“

„Well the stars up in the sky
and the leaves in the trees
all the broken bits that make you trip up
and the grassy bits in between.
All the matter in the world
is how much that i like you.“

She said: „What?“
He said: „Let me try and explain again ..“

„Birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared,
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you.“

Right, „Birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared,
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you.“

„Yeah thats how i feel about you.“

She said: „What?“
He said: „You“
She said: „What are you talking about?“
He said: „You!“

Right, „Birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared,
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you.“

Right, „Birds can fly so high
and they can shit on your head
yeah they can almost fly into your eye
and make you feel so scared,
but when you look at them
and you see that they are beautiful
thats how i feel about you.“

„And thats how i feel about you.“

She said: „Thanks, i like you too.“
He said: „Cool :)“

Close your eyes, and I will be swimming
Lullabys fill your room, and I will be singing
Singing to only you
Don’t forget I’ll hold your head
Watch the night sky fading red

But as you sleep, and no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet, I’ll keep you from sinking
Don’t you wake up yet, cause soon I’ll be leaving you
Soon I’ll be leaving you, but you won’t be leaving me

In the car, the radio leaves me searching for your star
A constellation of frustration driving hard
Singing my thoughts back to me, and watching heartache on TV

But as you sleep, and no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet, I’ll keep you from sinking
Don’t you wake up yet, cause soon I’ll be leaving you,
Soon I’ll be leaving you, but you won’t be leaving me

Don’t forget I’ll hold your head, watch the night sky fading red

But as you sleep, and no one is listening
I will lift you off your feet, I’ll keep you from sinking
Don’t you wake up yet, cause soon I’ll be leaving you
Soon I’ll be leaving you, but you won’t be leaving me
