Текст песни U2 - Please

So you never knew love until you crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted till you had someone slap your face
So you never felt alive until you almost wasted away

You had to win
You couldn’t just pass
The smarted 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

So you never knew how low you’d stoop to make that call
And you never knew what was on the ground till 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 they’re making the news
Your holy war
Your northren star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car
Please... please... please get up off your knees... please...
yeah... please... leave me out of this
Please
So love is hard and love is tough
But love is not what you’re thinking of

September... streets capsizing... spilling over and down the drain
... shards of glass splinters like rain but you could on feel
your own pain...
October... talking getting nowhere... November... December... remember...
We just starting again...?

Please... please... please get up off your knees and... please...
please... please
Please

So love is big bigger than us
But love is not what you’re thinking of
It’s what lover deal it’s what lovers steal
You know I’ve found it hard to receive
’Cause you my love I could never believe
