Quite possibly, one of the best bands - IMHO of course.
With or without you…

i have climbed 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
i have kissed honey lips / felt the healing in her fingertips
it burned like fire / this burning desire
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
i believe in the kingdom come / then all the colors will bleed into one
bleed into one / well yes i'm still running
you broke the bonds and you / loosed the chains
carried the cross / of my shame
of my shame / you know i believed it
but i still haven't found what i'm looking for

:k:
also post “where the streets have no name”
^ 5Abi, i tried that and it wouldn’t let me upload because the file was too large!!! mad i like that song a great deal. i could try to chop it up/compress it and then upload it, but i am afraid i do not know how to do that 
i’m truly sorry. 
The best thing to come out of Ireland, period. :k: Artistes will come and go but there will always be Sinatra and U2.
Great songs, do post more if you can.
I used to love U2 back in the day.
U2…Is my favourite band not to mention Pink floyed and many more.
There is a song by U2, (written by salman rushdi) called the “ground beneath her feet” its really :k:
Here goes...
10355.U2 - Where The Streets Have No Name(1)*
I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name
I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
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
I go there with you
It's all I can do
The city's aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
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
I go there with you
It's all I can do
Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, and I see love
See our love turn to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

"I will Follow..."
I was on the outside when you said
You said you needed me
I was looking at myself
I was blind, I could not see
A boy tries hard to be a man
His mother takes him by his hand
If he stops to think he starts to cry
Oh why
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...I will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...I will follow
I was on the inside
When they pulled the four walls down
I was looking through the window
I was lost, I am found
Walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...I will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway,
I walkaway, walkaway...I will follow
I will follow
Your eyes make a circle
I see you when I go in there
Your eyes, your eyes...
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway..I will follow
If you walkaway, walkaway
I walkaway, walkaway...I will follow
I will follow
I will follow...

"New Year's Day"
Yeah...
All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
I want to 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 will be with you again
Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says
Say it's true it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one
I...I will begin again
I...I will begin again
Oh...
Maybe the time is right
Oh...maybe tonight...
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
And so we're told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

"All I Want Is You"
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
You say you want your story to remain untold
But all the promises we made
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you'll give me a highway with no one on it
A treasure just to look upon it
All the riches in the night
You say you'll give me eyes in a world of blindness
A river in a time of dryness
A harbour in the tempest
But all the promises we make
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You say you want your love to work out right
To last with me through the night
You say you want diamonds on a ring of gold
Your story to remain untold
Your love not to grow cold
All the promises we break
From the cradle to the grave
When all I want is you
You
All I want is...you
All I want is...you
All I want is...you

U2 - Mysterious ways
1693.U2 - Mysterious Ways
[quote]
*"Mysterious Ways"
Johnny take a walk with your sister the moon
Let her 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
She'll be there when you hit the ground
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
Johnny 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 want to kiss the sky
Better learn how to kneel
(on your knees boy)
She's the wave
She turns 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
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
Lift my days, light up my nights
One day you will look...back
And you'll see...where
You were held...how
By this love...while
You could stand...there
You could 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
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright
We move through miracle days
Spirit moves in mysterious ways
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days, light up my nights

"Stuck In A Moment"
I'm not afraid
Of anything in this world
There's nothing you can throw at me
That I haven't already heard
I'm just trying to find
A decent melody
A song that I can sing
In my own company
I never thought you were a fool
But darling look at you
You gotta stand up straight
Carry your own weight
These tears are going nowhere baby
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And now you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
I will not forsake
The colors that you bring
The nights you filled with fireworks
They left you with nothing
I am still enchanted
By the light you brought to me
I listen through your ears
Through your eyes I can see
And you are such a fool
To worry like you do
I know it's tough
And you can never get enough
Of what you don't really need now
My, oh my
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Oh love, look at you now
You've got yourself stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
I was unconscious, half asleep
The water is warm 'til you discover how deep
I wasn't jumping, for me it was a fall
It's a long way down to nothing at all
You've got to get yourself together
You've got stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
Don't say that later will be better
Now you're stuck in a moment
And you can't get out of it
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if our way should falter
Along the stony pass
And if the night runs over
And if the day won't last
And if your way should falter
Along this stony pass
It's just a moment
This time will pass

Gizzyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Thank you so much. It’s all the songs that i wanted to hear, you got each and every one of them. Thank you so much
i am not certain if it’s a problem with my computer (it most likely is hehe) but the “New year’s day” one was not working, but you got all the other songs that are my favourites. U2 is surely (IMHO) one of the best bands around. i grew up listening to most of their stuff, so their songs are loaded with memories for me.
Now i’ll be returning to this thread again and again. Thank you for posting the lyrics as well. Bahaut bahaut shukriya.
Nadia, Pleasure is mine! No need to thank me :-)
I will post more songs tomorrow. I got almost all U2 songs. : )
I remember in the late 90's, I was in Berlin when U2 was on tour in Germany and that's when the album "Achtung baby" was released.
wow! They were touring Germany while you were in Berlin? That must have been something you will never forget. i was in Canada:( i’ve never seen them live, i don’t think they have ever even visited Canada while i have been here (maybe Bono visited Toronto, that was about it, but i don’t even live in Toronto so that doesn’t count).
This thread has become one of my favs now, thanks to all the great songs you just uploaded. Thank you so much.
