The Unforgettable Fire - Letras Originais
A Sort
of Homecoming (5:28)
And you know it's time to go
Through the sleet and driving snow
Across the fields of mourning
Light's in the distance
And you hunger for the time
And you hunger for the time
Time to heal, 'desire', time
Time to heal, 'desire', time
And your earth moves beneath
And your earth moves beneath
Your own dream landscape
Your own dream landscape
Home, home, our home
-- On borderland we run-un-un-uh-un
Run-un-un-un
I'll be there, I'll be there
Tonight,
Nigh-igh-igh-ight
A highroad, a highroad out for me
The city walls are all pulled down
The dust a smokescreen all around
See faces ploughed like fields
That once gave no resistance
And we live by the side of the road
On the side of a hill, as the valley explode
Dislocated, the suffocated
The land grows weary of its own
If some a way o coma way o come o coma way asay I
O coma way asay I
MmmmMm
O coma way o coma way o come o coma way say I
O coma way o coma way o come o coma way say I
Home, oh my home
-- On borderland we run
Ru-un-un-un
And still we run, we run and don't look back
I'll be there, I'll be there
Tonight,
Nigh-igh-igh-ight
Tonight
I'll be there tonight
I believe...
I'll be there, so hold... on...
I'll be there --
Tonight, tonight
Yo coma way o me safe me say oh ma
Yo coma way o me say
The wind will crack in winter time
This bomb-blast lightning waltz
No spoken words, just a scream....
Yeahhhh -- "In my - y - y - y - y - y home"
Ho-oh-oh-oh-ome --
Tonight -
Tonigh-igh-igh-ight
We'll build a bridge across the sea and land
See the sky, the burning rain
Nigh-igh-igh-ight
She will die and live again
Tonight
And your heart beats so slow
Through the rain and falling snow
Across the fields of mourning
Across the fields of mourning
Light's in the distance
Light's in the distance
Oh don't sorrow, no don't weep
For tonight, at last
I am coming home
I am coming home

Pride
(In the Name of Love) (3:50)
One man come in the Name of Love
One man come and go
One man come he to justify
One man to overthrow
In the Name of Love
What more in the Name of Love?
In the Name of Love
What more in the Name of Love?
One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resisted
One man washed up on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss
In the Name of Love
What more in the Name of Love?
In the Name of Love
What more in the Name of Love?
[Ba Bum]
Nobody like you
Somebody lied to you
[Keep on singing]
Nobody tell you
[Try that again.]
(Shhh...)
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm
Mmm Mmm Mmm Mmm [Go ahead and do it]
Early morning, April 4
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
What more in the Name of Love?
In the Name of Love
What more in the Name of Love?
In the Name of Love
What mor-or-ore?
What mor-or-ore?
What more in the Name of Love?
What mor-or-ore?
What mor-or-ore?
In the Name of Love
What mor-or-ore?
What mor-or-ore?
What more in the Name of Love?
What mor-or-ore?
What mor-or-ore?
What mor-or-ore?
Mmm Mmm Mmm

Wire (4:19)
(Don't move it.)
(Innocent...)
Innocent,
And in a sense I am -- (Go ahead, Edge)
Guilty of the crime that's now in hand.
It's such a nice day,
To throw your life away... (Go Edge)
It's such a nice day,
To let it go...
[Keep on going, Edge]
Cold in his eyes
- -- I can't believe them
Cold in his heart and
Soul,
Heart and soul
(Slow it up... Edge)
Slow it up -- an' shhhh...
Cold man, such a
Cold heart, such a
Torn man, he'll watch you tear your
Self apart
So I lay me down,
For my soul to keep
So I lay me down,
F'r the longest sleep
Oh, Oh, for the longest sleep...
In I come and out you go and you get (to bring it)
And here we are again now, place your bets (to make it)
Huh huh
Is this the time?
- -- The time to win or lose?
Is this the time?
- -- The time to choose?
Yeeeeahhh-eaeeah-eaeeah -- I'm not that man
- -- I-I-I-I -- I've bought him dope
The cold in his eyes, I
- -- Can't believe them
Soul deep inside a,
Cold fire --
Cold in his heart and sou --ou -- ou -- ou -- oul.
Did it, Did do it,
Did it, Did it, Do the line
Did it, Do it again, I did do it
Anytime -- you're only a...
- -- A kiss away! (You're dead!)
Buy!
Dope!
Ahhh!

The Unforgettable
Fire (4:56)
(And his wife's gone away...)
Romantic
Love, love, love, lov-oo-ove
Ice,
Romantic, love, love, love,
Your only rivers run cold
Lov-oo-ove
These city lights,
Don't go, don't go, don't
They shine as silver and gold
Go-oo-o
Dug from the night,
Don't go, don't go, don't
Your eyes as black as coal
Go-oo-o
Don't go, don't go, don't go-oo-o
And walk on by, walk on through
Walk, turn, and run,
And don't look back
- -- For here, I am
Don't go, don't go, don't go-oo-o
Carnival,
Romantic love, love,
The wheels fly and the colours spin
Lo-oo-ove
Through alcohol
Romantic love, love, lo-oo-ove
The red wine that punctures the skin
Face to face in a dry and waterless place
Romantic love, love, lo-oo-ove
And walk on by, walk on through
So sad to besiege your love so head on
Stay in this night
Stay tonight, inner light
I'm only asking but I,
I think you know-ah.
Come on and take me away
Come on take me away
Come on take me home,
Home again...
Forever, forever, forever nigh-igh-ight
Why don't you come in?
And she's not home...
And if the mountains should crumble
Or disappear into the sea
Not a tear, no not I
Stay in this time
Stay tonight, inner light
And forever after, it's love in time
And if you've saved your love,
- -- Saved it all!
Don't push me your love
Don't push me too far
Don't push me too far -- tonight
Tonight
Tonight

Promenade
(2:34)
(Breathe deeply)
Earth, sky, sea, and rain
Is she comin' back again?
Men of straw, a snooker hall
Words that build or destroy
Dirt dry bone, sand and stone
A barbed wire fence cut me down
I'd like to be around
In a spiral staircase
To the higher ground
And I, like a firework, and explode
The Roman candle and lightning, lights up the sky
In cracked streets we're trampled underfoot
We sidestep the sidewalk
I see you starin' into space
Have I got closer now
Behind your face?
Oh my Lord, turn me up,
Charity dance with me, And turn me around tonight
Up through the spiral staircase to the higher ground.
Slide show - a little sea-side town
Coca-cola, football, radio
Radio radio Radio
Radio radio...

4th of
July (2:14)
(Instrumental)

Bad (6:08)
(They're up)
If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes I would
If I could, I would -- let it go
And surrender
Dislocate
If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay
See you walk, walk away
Into the night
And through the rain
Into the half-light
And through the flame
If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart away
See you break, break away
An' into the light
And to the day
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Ho-Hooo
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Ho-Hooo
So let it go
And song to fade away
So let it go
And song fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh Norman, Norman, Norman...
If you should ask,
Then maybe they'd tell you what I would say
True colours fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flak
Colours crash and collide in bloodshot eyes
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Hoo
Hoo Ho-Hooo
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would, let it go
And this desperation
Dislocation
Separation
Condemnation
Revelation
In temptation
Isolation
Desolation
Let it go --
And song fade away
So let it go
-- Of all I love, and song fade away
So let it go
Come along, and song to fade away
I'm wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh Norman, Norman, Norman...
(Is that good enough?)
(Certainly)

Indian
Summer Sky (4:20)
(Good, Edge!)
(I'm going to sing...)
In the ocean cuts wind, deep
-- The sky -- light there
I don't know why
In the forest there's a clearing
I
Run there,
Toward the light
Sky,
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
It's a blue sky
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up, up
In the earth -- a hole, dig deep, decide
If I could, I would
Up for air to swim against the tide
Ay hey hey
Up toward the sky
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
It's a blue sky
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up, up, up
To lose along the way
The spark that set the flame
To flicker and to fade
On this the longest day
Soul wind go through to my heart
Soul wind go through to my heart
Soul wind blow through my song
Soul wind blow into my song
Soul wind go through to my heart
Soul wind blows in my heart
Soul wind blow through my song
Soul wind blow into my song
Soul wind go through to my eyes
Soul wind blows in my heart
Soul wind blow into my song
Up, up, up, up, up
You give yourself to this the longest day
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
You give yourself, you give it all away-ay -ay -ay
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up, up
Two rivers run to deeper seasons change and so do I
The light that strikes the tallest trees
Will light the way for I
Will light a way,
Up toward the sky
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
It's a blue sky
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up, up, up
And to lose along the way
The spark that set the flame
To flicker and to fade
On this the longest day
Soul wind goin' through to my heart
Soul wind blowin' through my song
Soul wind go through to my heart
Soul wind blows to my heart
Soul wind blowin' through my song
The wind blows into my song
Soul wind goin' through to my heart
Soul wind blows to my heart
Soul wind blowin' through my song
The wind blows into my song
Soul wind go through to my heart
Soul wind blows to my heart
The wind blows into my song
Up, up, up, up, up
You give yourself to this, the longest day
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
You give yourself, you give it all away
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up
Up, up, up, up, up

Elvis
Presley and America (6:22)
Black flesh in here.
Black flesh of my only love --
Tell me, open my eyes.
Black flesh come into my own mind,
Telling me to sing...
And I believe in you,
And I believe in you,
Black flesh sees the sky [That's nice], and he turns its sight from you,
But she won't turn my bag,
And I know that real tears are blue...
And you know,
And your sky is faith in blue,
And your heart -- been so cold when I'm with you,
And you feel, like no one told you to,
And your time is your sighin'
And you'll talk with me,
Oh, don't talk to me,
Aw, don't talk to me,
Don't talk to me...
And you know,
Like no one told you how,
But you know,
Well, The King that howed has howled --
And revealed, like sentimental,
But you don't care --
Without you're sharing
In your hear-ar-ar-art hear-ar-ar-ar--
Heart, there sleeps a hope you see:
I'm breaking through for you and me.
And you know,
Although no one told you to,
And you found out when you were going:
We're two.
Are you through with me?
-- But I know that you'll be back for more...
And you know,
And though no one told you so,
And you know:
The sky -- like a heart is shades of blue.
And you want,
You want ---- to let go-oh-oh...
We live on the outside,
Turn away, fade away,
You can drop me down, but don't break me:
In your castle stay --
Au-di-ence sighs in your heart and mind,
Au-di-ence dies in your heart... and mine...
Someday love will come,
Lovin' is in your sigh,
The War King too.
Something in your heart:
It beats like something new...
(I need The Edge)
Keep The Edge!
I'm at home,
Mm an' love is...
Stay, stay sad and resigned,
Don't stay sad, no more be sad,
Don't stay sad, no more be sad,
Don't stay sad, no more be sad...
And you know,
And though no one told you how, (told you how)
And you know,
And you wipe the sweat off your white brow. (your white brow)
And you care, (care, care)
And though no one told, you tried,
And your heart (and your heart) is left out from the sigh (from the sigh),
And the rain beats down,
And the shame (keeps) on beating down,
And this rain keeps on coming down,
And this sky... (is black)
I'll keep the voice of emotion you want
I'll keep on going - enjoyin' instinct, Brian
I gave away some energy -- why?
I'll keep my voice up, [Keep it up!] -- can you go louder?
I'll keep my voice up loud and gain the Ruler.
And you know,
And although knowing told you sky blue,
And you feel like needle pricks and you don't care,
You'll say, "Go and kill Lear! Or the older side of me."
"Don't you leave!"
"Don't leave out part of me!"
"Then I can't feel it!"
"I can't feel anymore!" [Keep it up!]
And "I can't hold on!" [Keep it going!]
And "I don't seem that flawed."
And you pick me up:
Bits and pieces
On this
Floor.

MLK (2:32)
Sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realized
If the thunder cloud passes rain
So let it rain, rain down on he
Mmm Mm
So let it be
Mmm Mm
So let it be
Sleep, sleep tonight
And may your dreams be realized
If the thunder cloud passes rain
So let it rain, let it rain
Rain on he
