U2 - Please

Please

So you never knew love
Until you crossed the line of grace.
And you never felt wanted
Ti will youd someone slap your face.
So you never felt ali have
Until youd almost wasted away.
You had to win, you couldnt just pass
The smartest ass at the top of the class
Your flying colours, your family tree
And all your lessons in history.
Please, please, please
Get up off your knees.
Please, please, please, please, oh yeah.
And you never knew how low youd stoop
To make that call
And you never knew what was on the ground
Ti will they made you crawl.
So you never knew that the heaven
You keep you stole.
Your Catholic blues, your convent shoes,
Your stick-on tattoos now theyre making the news
Your holy war, your northern star
Your sermon on the mount from the boot of your car.
Please, please, please
Get up off your knees.
Please, please, please
Leave me out of this, please.
So love is hard
And love is tough
But love is not
What you are thinking of.
September, streets capsizing
Spilling over down the drains
Shard of glass, splinters like rain
But you could only feel your own pain.
October, talk getting nowhere.
November, December; remember
We just started again.
Please, please, please
Get up off your knees, yeah.
Please, please, please, please, ah.
So love is big
Is bigger than us.
But love is not
What you are thinking of.
Its what lovers deal
Its what lovers steal
You know I have found it
Hard to recei have
Cause you, my love
I could never believe.
