Landlady by U2
Released : 2017
Roam, the phone is where I live til I get home
And when the doorbell rings you tell me that I have a key
I ask you, how you know it’s me
The road, no road without a turn and if there was
The road would be too long
What keeps us standing in this view
Is the view that we can be brand new
The landlady takes me up in the air
I go, I go where I would not dare
Landlady shows me the stars up there
I’m weightless, weightless when she is there
And I’ll never know, never know what starving poets meant
Cause when I was broke, it was you that always paid the rent
Space, her place is where I found my parking space
And when I’m losing ground, you know she gives it back to me
She whispers “don’t do, just be”
The landlady takes me up in the air
I go, I go where I would not dare
Landlady shows me the stars up there
I’m weightless, weightless when she is there
And I’ll never know, never know what starving poets meant
Cause when I was broke, it was you that always paid the rent
Every wave that broke me
Every song that wrote me
Every dawn that woke me
Was to get me home to you, see
Every soul that left me
Every heart that kept me
The strangers that protected me
To bring me back to you
Every magic potion
Every false emotion
How unswerving our devotion
To the lies we know are almost true
Every sweet confusion
Every grand illusion
I will win and call it losing
If the prize is not for you

○ Top “U2” Songs
● “With or Without You ”
[ Quotable ]
Through the storm, we reach the shore
You give it all but I want more
And I’m waiting for you
● One
[ Quotable ]
Did I disappoint you
Or leave a bad taste in your mouth?
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
● One
[ Quotable ]
You say love is a temple, love a higher law
Love is a temple, love the higher law
You ask me to enter, but then you make me crawl
● Sunday Bloody Sunday
[ Quotable ]
And the battle’s just begun
There’s many lost, but tell me who has won?
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters
Torn apart
