Bono - Eden (To Find Love) Lyrics

Lyrics Eden (To Find Love) - Bono



It′s part of the attraction, you wanna be destroyed
I'm the spirit on the water, you′re the formless void
When I heard your voice, at first I was annoyed
You woke me
From the beginning of time you had so little grace
After a while, not a freckle on your face
I was looking for a rhyme in time and space
And you broke me
You were walking 'round naked with your pants not on
At the gates of Eden with no sins to pardon
It was Adam, not Eve, who threw God out of the garden
You wrote me
Let's not get too clever with this stuff
What are you ready to give up
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
When you′re climbing from the wreckage of a burned out star
Any old neon looks like the Carlton Bar
Asked where was I going, I answered
"How far you wanna go?"
American male, interior, night
The cigarette smoker′s gonna find his light
If you repeat often enough wrong looks right
But deep down you know
The smooth will make excuses for the rough
Yeah, I know it shouldn't be this tough
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
Tell the oceans, tell the sun
Tell the weatherman, tell everyone
All the money junkies are running out of veins
If you′re one of them yourself you've got no one else to blame
You don′t need any more then you have
Except the shame of feeling torn
Between the hungry and the greedy, the honeyed and the needy
If you wanted you could see me, when you serve the poor, you free me
Slaves have grown accustomed to the weight of your chains
And your heads shorn
Your eyes will find the silence inside the hurricane
You know you must do something other than complain
We'll pray for mother earth, these are not more labour pains
Maybe you′re being born
Out of the ash, out of the dust
The clever learn who not to trust
The genius of belief, is that we must
Take a chance sometimes on us
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
To find love
