U2 - Stay (Faraway, So Close !)
Capo 1
Intro:
Verse:
Green light, Seven Eleven
You stop in for a pack of cigarettes
You don´t smoke, don´t even want to
Hey now, check your change
Dressed up like a car crash
Your wheels are turning but you´re upside down
You say when he hits you, you don´t mind
Because when he hurts you, you feel alive
Hey babe, is that what it is
Verse :
Red lights, gray morning
You stumble out of a hole in the ground
A vampire or a victim
It depend´s on who´s around
You used to stay in to watch the adverts
You could lip synch to the talk shows
Bridge :
And if you look, you look through me
And when you talk, you talk at me
And when I touch you, you don´t feel a thing
Refrain :
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...and the day would keep its trust
Stay...and the night would be enough
Verse :
Faraway, so close
Up with the static and the radio
With satelite television
You can go anywhere
Miami, New Orleans
London, Belfast and Berlin
Bridge :
And if you listen I can´t call
And if you jump, you just might fall
And if you shout, I´ll only hear you
Refrain :
If I could stay...
Then the night would give you up
Stay...then the day would keep its trust
Stay...with the demons you drowned
Stay...with the spirit I found
Stay...and the night would be enough
Verse :
Three o´clock in the morning
It´s quiet and there´s no one around
Just the bang and the clatter
As an angel runs to ground
Just a bang and a clatter
As an angel hits the ground
