Favorite lines from a U2 song?

[U2Pride]

You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left there on a beach.
Well you tell me things
I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach.

[Mysterious Ways]

One of my favourite lines:

"They want you to be Jesus
They'll go down on one knee
But they'll want their money back
If you're alive at thirty three
And you're turning tricks
With your crucifix
You're a star"

[evel12314]

And I have no compass, and I have no map.
And I have no reasons, no reasons to get back.
And I have no religion, and I don't know what's what.
And I don't know the limit, the limit of what we got.

Don't worry baby, it'll be alright,
You've got the right shoes to get you through the night.
It's cold outside, but brightly lit.
Skip the subway, let's go to the overground.
Get your head out of the mud, baby.
Put flowers in the mud, baby, overground.

No particular place names, no particular song,
I've been hiding, what am I hiding from?

Don't worry baby, it's gonna be alright.
Uncertainty can be a guiding light.
I hear voices, ridiculous voices.
I'm in the slipstream,
Let's go, let's go overground,
Take your head out of the mud, baby.

She's gonna dream up the world she wants to live in,
She's gonna dream out loud.
Dream out loud.
Dream out loud.

"You gotta cry without weeping...Talk without speaking...Scream without raising your voice" - Running To Stand Still.

[StrongGirl]

You're an accident waiting to happen
You're a piece of glass left there on a beach.
Well you tell me things
I know you're not supposed to
Then you leave me just out of reach.

That has always been one of my favorites!!!!!

"I remember when we could sleep on stones..... Now we lie together, in whispers and moans.... When I was all messed up, and I heard opera in my head.... Your love was a lightbulb, hanging over my bed.........Baby,Baby,Baby, Light My Way."

[Anthony02]

I'd like to be around
In a spiral staircase to the higher ground
And I, like a firework, explode
Roman candle lightening lights up the sky
In cracked streets trampled underfoot
Side step, sidewalk
I see you stare into the space
Have I got closer now behind the face
Oh, tell me, cherry you dance with me
Turn me around tonight
Up through the spiral staircase
To the higher ground -  Promenade

[Mysterious Ways]

"You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest act
At the top of your class"

"Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car"

-Please
I love those.

[Anthony02]

"You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest act
At the top of your class"

"Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car"

-Please
I love those.

So love is hard and love is tough
But love is not what you're thinking of
September, streets capsizing
Spilling over, down the drain
Shards of glass, splinters like rain
But you could only feel your own pain
October, talk getting nowhere
November, December
Remember, are we just starting again-Please



Gotta love the song, Mysterious ways.

There are many to list and some have been written, but I haven't see this one from "When I Look at the World"


When the night is someone elses
And you're trying to get some sleep
When your thoughts are too expensive
To ever want to keep

[luieu2]

"Love is drowning in a deep well...all the secrets, and know one to tell...
 Take the money, honey...it's  blindness.
 Love is blindness, I don't wanna see, won't you wrap the night around me...
 Take my heart its blindness...."
 *Then Edge goes-off on a really cool solo...I Love It.
