The end of BD and the beginning of The Fly are pretty murky. Well, there are quite a few spots.  :)
My wife remarked to me that unless you already knew the words you would barely understand Bono at all. But at least she went.  :D

Thanks to Lemon85 for the Spanish help.


Vertigo
U23D

Hello, hello

Oh yeah
Some Irish lessons, one line (light,night?)

Unos, dos, tres, catorce

The lights go down it’s dark
The jungle is your head
Can’t rule your heart
A feeling so much stronger than your thought
Your eyes are wide and
Though your soul, it can’t be bought
Your mind can wander

Hello, hello
Hola
We’re at a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you give me something I can feel
Feel

The night is full of holes
As bullets rip the sky
Of ink with gold
They sparkle
As the boys play rock and roll
They know that they can't dance
At least they know

I can't stand the beats
I'm asking for the check
Girl with crimson nails
Has Jesus 'round her neck
Swinging to the music
Swinging to the music
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Hello, hello
Hola
We’re at a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
It's everything I wish I didn't know
Except you, give me something, I can feel
Feel

Ah, he’s coming home
Almost home, yeah
This man is mad at all

All of this, all of this could be yours
All of this, all of this could be yours
All of this, all of this could be yours
Just give me what I want
And no one gets...hurt

Hello, hello
Hola
We’re at a place called Vertigo
Dond' esta
Lights go down and all I know
Is that you, give me something
I can feel your love teaching me how
Your love is teaching me how
How to kneel
Kneel

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah

Beautiful Day
U2 3D

The heart is a bloom, it shoots up through the stony ground
But 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, 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
Sky falls it feels like
It’s a beautiful day

You’re on the road, but you got no destination
You’re in the mud, in the maze of her imagination
You love this town, even if that 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
A beautiful day

You can touch me
Take me to that other place
Te-ee-ee-each me
I know I’m not a hopeless case, no

See the world in white and blue
Buenos Aires right in front of you
From the Pampas to Patagonia
Tierra del Fuego, Ria Paraná
Argentina is in motion
From the high hills to the Atlantic Ocean
See the bird with the leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out

It was a beautiful day
Don’t let it get away
A beautiful day

You can touch me, take me to that other place
Te-ee-ee-each me, 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, don’t need it now
Beautiful day
Beautiful
?
Soul
You got soul
You got soul
Soul
Soul

Ba-da-da-da
Ba-da
Holas Portenos (?)

Beautiful night
You’re in the light
Gracias, Buenos Aires

New Year’s Day
U23D

Muchas gracias

Yea-yea-yea-yea-yo-ho

We begin again

All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
I wanna be with you be with you
Night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day   
On New Year’s Day

I will be with you again / I…I
I , I will begin again / I…I

Under a blood-red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined like a chosen few
¡Comadres!...it’s true

Say it's true, it's true
We can break through
Though torn in two, we can be one

I, I will begin again / I…I
I, I will begin again / I…I
Begin again

Yea-yeah-oh

On the bass
The genius of Adam Clayton

On guitar
The Edge

El gruppo
Larry Mullen

I, will be with you again / I…I
I, will be with you again / I…I
I, I can begin again / I…I
I and we, we can begin again / I…I
Begin again, begin again

Sometimes You Can’t Make It On Your Own
U23D

Para mi padre
Bob Hewson
For my father

Tough
You think you’ve got the stuff
You’re telling me and anyone
You’re hard enough

You don’t have to put up a fight
You don’t have to always be right
Let me take some of the punches
For you tonight

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

We fight
All the time
You and I, that’s alright
Cause we’re the same soul

I don’t need
I don’t need to hear you say
That if we weren’t so alike
You’d like me a whole lot more

Listen to me now
I need to let you know
You don’t have to go it alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you when I don’t pick up the phone
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
Yeah, yeah, yeah

I know that we don’t talk
I'm sick of it all
But can you hear me when I sing
You’re the reason I sing
You’re the reason why the opera is in me

Well, hey now
Still got to let you know
A house still don't make a home
Don’t leave me here alone

And it’s you when I look in the mirror
And it’s you that makes it hard to let go
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Sometimes you can’t make it
Best you can do is to fake it
Sometimes you can’t make it on your own

Love And Peace Or Else
U23D

First the father…then the Fatherland

Lay down
Lay down
Lay your sweet lovely on the ground
Lay your love on the track
And we’re gonna break the monster’s back
Oh-ho-ho

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, release, release
We need love and peace
Love and peace
Love and peace

Lay down
Lay down your guns
All you daughters of Zion
All you ignorant 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
We need some release, release, release, release, release
We need love and peace
Love and peace
Love and peace

(We need love today)

Baby don’t fight
We can talk this thing through
It'll be me or you
I can call or you’ll phone
The TV is still on
The sound is turned down
The troops on the ground
Are about to dig in
And I’m wondering, where’s the love
Where is the love
Love

Sunday Bloody Sunday
U23D

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

I can't believe the news today
I can't close my eyes and make it go away

How long, how long must we sing this song
How long, how long
Tonight, we can be as one
Tonight

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across a dead end street
I won't heed the battle call
Puts my back up
My back up against the wall

Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday / Sunday bloody Sunday
(Let’s go)

And this battle's yet begun
There's many lost but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
Mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart

Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday

How long, how long must we sing this song
How long, how long
Tonight, we can be as one
Tonight
Tonight, tonight
Tonight, tonight
(?)

(What a day)?
Father Abraham
You see Jesus, Jew, Mohammed, it's true
Jesus, Jew, Mohammed, it's true
All sons of Abraham, all sons of Abraham

Father Abraham, what have we done?
Father Abraham, speak to your sons
Tell them no more, no more, no more
No more, no more, no more, no more
Tell them, no more
No more
No more
No more
No more, no more

Wipe your tears away
Wipe your tears away
Wipe your bloodshot eyes / Sunday bloody Sunday
Wipe your tears away / Sunday bloody Sunday

Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sing for us
(Sunday bloody Sunday)
Sunday bloody Sunday

Show you love
Show your love
Show your love
Show your love
 
And it's true we are immune
Fact is fiction, T.V. a reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

The real battle yet begun/ Sunday bloody Sunday
We’ll take the victory Jesus won / Sunday bloody Sunday
On
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday bloody Sunday
Sunday

Bullet The Blue Sky
U23D

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain
See 'em driving nails into souls in the tree of pain
From a firefly a red orange glow
I see the face of fear running scared in the valley below, oh

Sky / Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Sky / Oo-oo-oo-oo
Bullet the sky / Sky
Bullet the sky / Sky
Bullet the blue / Sky
Bullet the blue / Sky

In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum
Jacob wrestled the angel, the angel was overcome
You plant a demon seed, you raise a flower of fire
See them burning crosses, see the flames higher and higher

Sky / Oo-oo-oo-oo-oo-oo
Sky / Oo-oo-oo-oo
Bullet the blue sky / Sky
Bullet the blue sky/ Sky
Bullet the blue / Sky
Bullet the blue / Sky

When Johnny comes marching home again
Hurrah, hurrah
Johnny comes marching home again
Home…home…home…home…home

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah… America
These are the hands that built America
When Johnny comes marching home again
Hurrah, hurrah
When Johnny comes marching home again
Hurrah, hurrah
No matter what he see
No matter what he hear
Just as long as Johnny comes home safely here
Johnny safe home
Safe home
Johnny

Miss Sarajevo
U23D

Miss Sarajevo

Is there a time for keeping your distance
A time to turn your eyes away
Is there a time for keeping your head down
And getting on with your day

Is there a time for kohl and lipstick
A time for cutting hair
Is there a time for high street shopping
To find the right dress to wear

Here she comes, oh, oh
Heads turn around
Here she comes
To take her crown

Is there a time to run for cover
A time for kiss and tell
Is there a time for different colors
Different names you find so hard to spell

Is there a time for first communion
A time for synagogue
Is there a time to turn to Mecca
Be a beauty queen before God

Here she comes, oh, oh
Heads turn around
Here she comes
Surreal in her crown

Dici che il fiume trova la via al mare
Che come il fiume giungerai a me
Dici che come il fiume e le terre assetate
Dici che come il fiume
Come il fiume l'amore giungera
L'amore…
E non so piu pregare
E quell'amore non so piu sperare
E quell'amore non so piu aspettare

Is there a time for changing values
A time to wear a blind
Is there a time for keeping your mouth shut
Or is this the time for human rights
Is this the time…for human rights

Pride (In The Name Of Love)
U23D

One man come in the name of love
One man he come and go
One man comes he to justify
One man to overthrow

In the name of love
One more in the name of love
In the name of love
One more in the name of love

One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss

In the name of love
One more in the name of love
In the name of love
One more in the name of love

Love…love…

Oh-oh-oh-oh

Early evening, April four
A shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love
One more in the name of love
In the name of love
One more in the name of love

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-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh / For Martin Luther King, sing!

Martin Luther King’s dream
Not just an American dream
Also… a Latin-American dream
Sing!

Where The Streets Have No Name
U23D

For Peru
We wake up in the dream
Mexicano
Wake up in the dream
Chile
Wake up in the dream
Nicaragua
Argentina
Brazil!
(Cuba)

I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls that hold me inside
I wanna reach out and touch the flame
Where the streets have no name, love

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace
I wanna take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name, oh love

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building, then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there I go there with you
It's all I do

The city’s a flood, our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
I'll show you a place, its high, high
Where the streets have no name, oh love

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building, then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there, I go there with you
It's all we do

Love, love, love
Only love
Love, love, love
Only love

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building, then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go to there, go there with you
It's all…all we do
It’s all we do

One
U23D

(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Sing for me
(Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh…)
(Oh-oh-oh-….)
Turn on your light
Shine a light
And try to call…everyone
Oh-oh-oh…

Shine a light
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Shine a light…oh-oh-oh…
Shine a light
Oh

If you come from a small country like Ireland, Argentina is a very, very big place
But our countries have a lot in common
The most important thing is, the difficulties of our past will not prevent us making a better future
We must work together, left and right
Uno, uno, uno...uno

Is it getting better?
Do you feel the same? Oh, please
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame?

You say (one love, one life
When it's one need in the night)
One love, we get to share it
It leaves you darling, if you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you?
Leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
But you want me to go without

Is it too late tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One

Have you come here for forgiveness?
Have you come to raise the dead?
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your bed?

Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing
Now it's all I've got
We're one, but we're not the same
Well we hurt each other then we do it again

You say, love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple, love a higher law
Asking me to enter, then you make me crawl
I can't be holding on to what you got
When all you got is hurt

One love, one blood
One life you’ve got to do what you should
One life with each other
Sister, my brother

One life but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
(One)

One…
One…
One…
One…
One…
One..

Thank you
It's merciful ?

The Fly
U23D

(What the f…
I don’t know what’s happened now…It just doesn;t work)
Where is The Fly?
Where is The Fly?

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes eclipsed by a moon
You know I don't see you when she walks in the room

It's no secret that a friend is someone who lets you help
It’s no secret that a liar will believe in no one else
They say a secret is something you’ll tell one other person
I'm telling you, child

Love, we shine like a burning star
Falling from the sky / A man will rise, a man will fall
Tonight /  From the sheer face of love like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal, every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and sing about their grief

Love, we shine like a burning star
Falling from the sky / A man will rise, a man will fall
Tonight  / From the sheer face of love like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all

Achtung, baby

Love, we shine like a burning star
Falling from the sky
Tonight

A man will rise
A man will fall
From the sheer face of love
Like a fly from a wall
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploded 'cause of one lie
Look, I gotta go, I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things, if I could I'd rearrange, yeah
Oh yeah
Yeah
Oh yeah

Thank you

With Or Without You
U23D

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, and you give
And you give yourself away

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

And you give yourself away
And 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 without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you

Oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
Oo-oo, oo-oo-oo
¡Buenas noches!

?
¡Buenas noches! ¡Hasta luego

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
(Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh)

We will never forget this
Thank you
You’re the best

Yahweh
U23D

Take these shoes
Click clacking down some dead end street
Take these shoes
And make ‘em fit, oh

Take this shirt
Polyester white trash made in nowhere
Take this shirt
And make it clean, clean

Take this soul
Stranded in some skin and bones
Take this soul
And make it sing, sing

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before the child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I’m waiting for the dawn

Take these hands
Teach them what to carry
Take these hands
Don’t make a fist, no

Take this mouth
So quick to criticize
Take this mouth
Give it a kiss, (aye)?

Yahweh, Yahweh
Always pain before the child is born
Yahweh, Yahweh
Still I’m waiting for the dawn

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh…
Sing now
(Oh…)

Take this city
City should be shining on a hill
Take this city
If it be your will

What no man can own
Only God can take
Take this heart
Take this heart
Take this city’s heart
And then… keep it safe, yeah
