U2 - The Fly
It's no secret
that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret
that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes
eclipsed by a moon
Y'know I don't see you
when she walks in the room
It's no secret
that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret
that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something
you tell one other person
So I'm telling you, child
[Love, we shine like a burning star]
[We're falling from the sky tonight]
A man will beg - a man will crawl
On the sheer face of love
like a fly on the wall
It's no secret at all It's no secret
that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret
ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal -
every poet is a thief
All kill the inspiration and sing about the grief
[Love, we shine like a burning star]
[We're falling from the sky tonight]
A man will rise - a man will fall
From the sheer face of love
like a fly from the wall
It's no secret at all
It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cause of one man's lie
Look, I gotta go - yeah I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things,
if I could, I'd rearrange
that the stars are falling from the sky
It's no secret
that our world is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes
eclipsed by a moon
Y'know I don't see you
when she walks in the room
It's no secret
that a friend is someone who lets you help
It's no secret
that a liar won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something
you tell one other person
So I'm telling you, child
[Love, we shine like a burning star]
[We're falling from the sky tonight]
A man will beg - a man will crawl
On the sheer face of love
like a fly on the wall
It's no secret at all It's no secret
that a conscience can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret
ambition bites the nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal -
every poet is a thief
All kill the inspiration and sing about the grief
[Love, we shine like a burning star]
[We're falling from the sky tonight]
A man will rise - a man will fall
From the sheer face of love
like a fly from the wall
It's no secret at all
It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cause of one man's lie
Look, I gotta go - yeah I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things,
if I could, I'd rearrange
