City Of Blinding Lights (Live from Nice, July 15, 2009)

The more you see the less you know
The less you find out as you go
I knew much more then
Than I do now

Neon heart, day-glow eyes
A city lit by fireflies
They’re advertising in the skies
For people like us

And I miss you when you’re not around
I’m getting ready to leave the ground
Ooo…

Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Don’t look before you laugh
Look ugly in a photograph
Flash bulbs, purple irises
The camera can’t see

I’ve seen you walk unafraid
I’ve seen you in the clothes you made
Can you see the beauty inside of me?
What happened to the beauty I had inside of me?

And I miss you when you’re not around
I, I’m getting ready to leave the ground
Ooo…

Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time
Time
Time
Time

Time won’t leave me as I am
Time won’t take the boy out of this man

Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
Oh you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

The more you know the less you feel
Some pray for, others steal
Blessings not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily

Blessings
Not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily
Luckily

Elevation (Live from Gelsenkirchen, Germany, August 3, 2009)

Oh-oh
A mole digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now, going down
Excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I can fly
So high

Oh-oh…

High, higher than the sun
You shoot me from a gun
I need you to elevate me here
On the corner of your lips
As the orbit of your hips, eclipse
You elevate my
 
Soul, got no self-control
I’m digging like a mole now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly
So high, elevation

Wo-oh…

I look like a cigar
Strung out like a guitar
Maybe you should educate my mind
Explain all these controls
Can’t sing but I’ve got soul
The goal is elevation

A mole digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly so high
Elevation

Wo-oh…

Love
Lift me up out of these blues
Won’t you tell me something true
I believe in you
Ah

A mole digging in a hole
Digging up my soul now
Going down, excavation
I and I in the sky
You make me feel like I could fly
So high, elevation

Wo-oh…

I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For (Live from Johannesburg, February 13, 2011)

Oh-oh

I have climbed the highest mountains
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you

I have run (I have crawled)
(I have scaled these city walls)
(These city walls)
(Only to be with you)


But I still haven’t found (what I’m looking for)
One more
(But I still haven't found what I'm looking for)

I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
Burning like a fire
I was burning inside her

I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for

Hugh Masakela in the house
Give it up for the master

I believe, the kingdom come
Then all the colours will bleed into one
Bleed into one
But yes, I'm still running

You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains
Carried the cross of my shame
You took the blame
You know I believe it

But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
But I still haven't found what I'm looking for
Sing now
But I still haven’t found

Hey-hey, hey-hey…
But I still…I still…haven’t found
I still, yeah I still haven’t found
What I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for

The great Hugh Masakela

Magnificent (Live from Zurich, September 11, 2010)

Where we going?
Geneva?
Basel
Bern
Zurich

Oh-oh-oh…

Oh-oh-oh, Magnificent
Oh-oh-oh, Magnificent

I was born
I was born to be with you 

In this space and time
After that
And ever after I haven't had a clue
Only to break rhyme
This foolishness
Could leave a heart black and blue


Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Only love
Only love
Can leave such a mark

Only love
Only love
Heals such a scar


I was born
I was born to sing for you 

I didn’t have a choice
But to lift you up
And sing whatever songs you wanted me to
I give you back my voice
From the womb
My first cry it was a joyful noise
Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Only love
Only love 
Leaves such a mark
But only love
Only love 
Heals such a scar


Justify till we die
You and I will magnify
Oh-oh-oh, Magnificent

Magnificent
Oh…

(Run to me)

La-da-da-da
La-da-da-da-da-da-da

Only love
Only love 
Heals such a scar

But only love
Only love unites our heart



Justify till we die
You and I will magnify
Oh-oh-oh, Magnificent

Magnificent

Magnificent
Magnificent

Stay (Faraway, So Close) (Live from Chicago, July 5, 2011)

Green light, 7-Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don't smoke, don't even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
The wheels are turning but you're upside down

You say when he hits you, you don't mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Oh now, is that what it is

Red lights, grey morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depends on who's around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch with the talk show host

And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don't feel a thing

If I could stay, then the night would give you up / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the day would keep its trust / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the night would be enough / Oh-oh-oh

Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio waves
With satellite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Chicago and back to Berlin

And if you listen, I can't call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I'll only hear you

If I could stay, then the night would give you up / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay, then the day would keep its trust / Oh-oh-oh
If I could stay with this demon you drown / Oh-oh-oh
Stay with the spirit I found / Oh-oh-oh
Stay and the night would be enough / Oh-oh-oh

Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh-oh-oh-oh

Three o'clock in the morning
It's quiet and there’s no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground

The Unforgettable Fire (Live from Gothenburg, Sweden, July 31, 2009)

Ice
Your only rivers run cold
These city lights
They shine as silver and gold
Dug from the night
Your eyes as black as coal
Oh-oh

Walk on by
Walk on through
Walk till you run
And don't look back
For here I am

Carnival
Wheels fly and the colours spin
Through alcohol
Red wine that punctures the skin
Face to face
In a dry and waterless place

Walk on by
Walk on through
Sad to besiege your love so
Head on

Stay in this time
Stay now
Stay now
Stay now

Stay
Stay tonight in a lie
Don’t push me too far
Don’t push me too far
Tonight

And if the mountains should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear
No, not I

Stay
Stay now
Stay now
Stay now

Stay
Stay tonight
Don’t push me too far
Don’t push me too far
Tonight

Ultra Violet (Light My Way) (Live from Coimbra, Portugal, October 3, 2010) – U2

Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checking out
I wanna get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love it won't be long

Oh sugar, don't you cry
Hey child, wipe the tears from your eye
You know I need you to be strong
And the day is dark as the night is long
I feel like trash, you make me feel clean
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

You bury your treasure where it can’t found
And your love is like some hard task that gets passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house, where no one can sleep
I guess it’s the price of love
And the price of love isn’t love if it’s cheap

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love

Baby, baby, baby, light my way

I remember when we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together in whispers and moans
When I was all messed up and I had opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb swinging over my bed

Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love

Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

Baby, baby, baby
Baby, baby, baby, light my way
Baby, baby, baby, light my way

With Or Without You (Live from London, August 14, 2009) – U2

See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I’ll wait for you
Sleight of hand and a twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I’m waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you

Through the storm we reached the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
Yeah you

And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give, you give
You give yourself away

My hands are tired
My body bruised you got me with
Nothing to win
And nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
You give yourself away
You give, you give
You give yourself away

With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh

With or without you
With or with…
I can’t live
With or without you

Beautiful Eunice Shriver
The beautiful Eunice Shriver

Ooo…
Ooo…

Goodbye, Eunice

Thank you for coming out…once again
Thank you for giving us a great life
Wild…not in our wildest imagination
Could it have been this good
Thank you

Lift it up
Now lift it up
Lift yourself up

Oh-oh-oh-oh…

Whoa
Thank you so much
Thank you, Phil
