MLK
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

Right now, our heart is with a woman, who, like Martin Luther King, who, like Nelson Mandela, who, like the heroes on the streets of Iran, a woman fighting for freedom and equality, a woman who’s spent much of the last 20 years under house arrest in her native Burma, her only crime is that were she free to face an election she would win that election. Her name is Aung San Suu Kyi. And from Sheffield right across the internet where this concert is going right now, we’re gonna sing Aung San Suu Kyi a little Irish lullaby.

Sleep, sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realized
If the thundercloud passes rain
So let it rain
Let it rain
Rain down on she

Walk On

Wo-ho-ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
Wo-ho-ho-oh-oh-oh-oh
If you have a picture, you have her picture take it out
If you brought a mask, put it on
Let her face be our face. Tonight
Aung San Suu Kyi, with love from Sheffield
Look at you, c’mon

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Oh-oh-oh
Walk on, walk on
What you got they cannot steal it
No, they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed to be seen
You could have flown away, a singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Oh-oh-oh-oh
Walk on, walk on
What you've got they can't deny it
No they can’t even buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

But I know it aches
Your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on

Volunteers, take your places now
Come and join us here

Home, hard to know what it is if you've never had one
Home, I can't say where it is but I know I'm going
Home, that’s where the hurt is
Yeah

Well I know it aches, your heart it breaks
You can only take so much
Walk on, walk on
Lift her up
Lift her up

All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All that you can
Leave behind
Leave it behind
Gonna leave it behind

Oh
Walk on
Walk on
Walk on
Walk on

And you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk alone
Alone
With love in your heart

Where The Streets Have No Name
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

No you’ll never walk alone
You’ll never walk, you’ll never walk
Alone, alone
Never walk
Alone
Never walk ?
(Bless her)

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

I wanna feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace
Wantin’ the sky hold back the hurricane
Where the streets have no name (don’t be long)

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,  go there with you
It's all we do

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

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building, then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there, go there with you
It's all I do
Willy Williams we truly love you

Love, love, love, only love
Love, love, love, only love
Gloria

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, go there with you
It's all we do
Oh, love
Eagle call to you
Oh…
Oh…love

Give it up
Willy Williams, back in Sheffield with his four mates
And things are going off really nice, thank you

Desmond Tutu Speech (Pre-recorded)

The same people who marched for civil rights in the United States are the same people who protested Apartheid in South Africa; who are the same people who worked for peace in Ireland, and are the same people who fought against debts slavery in the Jubilee Year 2000, who are the same beautiful people that I see when I look around this place tonight in 360 degrees.

We are those people. We are the same person. Because our voices were heard, millions more of our brothers and sisters are alive, thanks to the miracle aids drugs and malaria drugs. Ah, they will be doctors, they will be nurses, they will be scientists, who will live to solve great problems.

Yes, there are many obstacles. Of course, there are always roadblocks in the way of justice, but God will put a wind at our back and a rising road ahead, if we work with each other as one…one…

One
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

Is it getting better
Do you feel the same
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, you get to share it
It leaves you darling if you don't care for it

Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without

Is it too late, tonight
To drag the dirt 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 got
We're one, but we're not the same
Yeah, we hurt each other, then we do it again

You say, love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask 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 get to do what you should
One life with each other
With my sister, and my brother
One life, we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One…

Ooo…
Ooo…
Ooo…
Ooo…

Mysterious Ways
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

Ok…one more…maybe many more
Then what, I see, oh well
Hey
Ok
Gotta get it on
Get up on now

John take a walk with your sister the moon
Let a pale light in to fill up your room
You've been living underground, eating from a can
You've been running away from what you don't understand., love

She's slippy, you’re sliding down
Is she gonna be there when ya hit the ground, oh

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways, yeah-yeah

John take a dive with your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things you can't explain
To touch is to heal, to hurt is to steal
If you wanna kiss the sky, better learn how to kneel
On your knees, boy

She's the wave that turned the tide
She sees the man inside the child

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
Oh love, oh my love / It’s alright, it’s alright, it’s alright
Lift my days, light up my nights, love
 
Shave my head
Infect me
Lights on, Willy
On the stands

On the Wiley family(?)

One day you'll look back, and you'll see
Where you were held
How by this love
While you could stand there
And not move on this moment
Follow this feeling

It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
She moves in mysterious ways

Yeah-yeah love
Uh-huh, uh-huh-love
(This is my heart)

Move me spirit need us
Move me spirit make us
Move me spirit need us
Move with it
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days, light up my nights
Love, oh it’s fine, love

Thank you, good night
Thank you
Thank you so much

Ultraviolet
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

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
Dear 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 cannot be found
But your love is like a secret, it gets passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house, where no one can sleep
I know that the price is high, don’t cry when it’s  ?  than cheap

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

Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love
Ultraviolet love

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 the 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
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

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
And on a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I’ll wait without 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
You give yourself away
And you give, you give
You give yourself away

My hands are tied
My body bruised
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose

And you give yourself away
You give yourself away
And 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…

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

Woo…

Good night, ?
Thank you
To the U2 crew
And these ? …
That work so hard to put this show up
Welcome
Your birthday too

Larry, ?, good night
Sing it one more time

Oh-oh-oh-oh…

Turn on your radio

Moment Of Surrender
Don Valley Stadium
Sheffield, England
2009-08-20

(You’re very thoughtful) for coming out with us
Thank you to everyone in the Red Zones for paying for aids drugs for people who can’t afford them in faraway places. Thanks to everyone who signed up for the One campaign. We’re going to show you pictures in a moment.
Great Britain is made great by the way you people treat the world’s poor. Really respect-- you’re a generous country, you’re an extraordinary people. Thank you very much. Stick with it.
You could take out your phones if you want to send us a message, or, we could just turn this place into the Milky Way. That would be nice.
You can turn off these lights, Willy

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

Tied myself with wire
To let the horses run free
Playing with fire
Till the fire played with me, oh

The stone was semi-precious
We were barely conscious
Two souls too cool to be
In the realm of certainty
Even on our wedding day

We set ourselves on fire
Oh God, do not deny her
It's not if I believe in love
But if love believes in me
Believe in me

At the moment of surrender
I folded to my knees
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me

I've been in every black hole
At the altar of the dark star
My body's now a begging bowl
It’s begging to get back, it’s begging to get back
To my heart
To the rhythm of my soul
To the rhythm of my unconsciousness
To the rhythm that yearns
To be released from control

I was punching in the numbers at the ATM machine
I could see in the reflection
A face staring back at me
At the moment of surrender
Of vision over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me, oh my love

Surrender

I was speeding on the subway
Through the stations of the cross
Every eye looking every other way
Counting down till the pain would stop

At the moment of surrender
Of vision of over visibility
I did not notice the passers-by
And they did not notice me

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

Good night, God bless you
Thanks for giving us a great life
Thank you
Thanks for sticking with us
