Who is indeed practically perfect in every way, with the glaring exception of a dislike of Bono.. I expect you'll miss neither the sentiment nor my typically perverse sense of humor. Mainly because you love me in spite of myself.
We're both right dear.. Don't just listen, hear me too.
And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage that you can bring...
And love is not the easy thing...
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind
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
Walk on, walk on
What you got they can't 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
Walk on, walk on
What you've got they can't deny it
Can't sell it, or buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight
And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on
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
I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on
Leave it behind
You got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you feel
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress-up
All that you scheme...

Oh, how oh how can anyone not love Bono?
Cuz- I know, boggles the mind.
Great video, not much of a Bono fan, but liked the video. (I am just saying that because of Larraines comment)
There are so many things to dislike about Bono. Where to begin, where to begin.... Yeah, I know, I'm a pathetic loser because U2 makes me want to ram pencils in my ears.
Sage- Ah well to each their own..
Tony- But I love you nonetheless..
only problem with bono is no one loves bono as much as bono loves bono...well, next to me..
Guess I needed to hear this song, AND read the lyrics. Some great lines here to get the old synapses firing: "and love is not the easy thing,
the only baggage you can bring,
Is all that you can't leave behind."
Well said.
"A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom"
Amen.
I like Bono's lyrics, and he is starting to grow on me.
Thank you for posting this, sis!
Granny- And there you have it! But love him I do.
Tater- Sometimes all a person has to do is open their ears to rethink a little bit.
