Category: Power of Love
Original of the Species – U2
Baby slow down The end is not as fun as the start Please stay a child somewhere in your heart I’ll give you everything you want Except the thing that you want You are the first one of your kind And you feel like no one before You steal right under my door And I kneel ’cause I want you some more I want the lot of what you got And I want nothing that you’re not Everywhere you go, you shout it You don’t have to be shy about it Some things you shouldn’t get too good at Like smiling, crying and celebrity Some people got way too much confidence baby I’ll give you everything you want Except the thing that you want You are the first one of your kind And you feel like no one before You steal right under my door I kneel ’cause I want you some more I want the lot of what you got And I want nothing that you’re not Everywhere you go you shout it You don’t have to be shy about it, no And you’ll never be alone Come on now, show your soul You’ve been keeping your love under control Everywhere you go you shout it You don’t have to be shy about it Everywhere you go you shout it Oh my my And you feel like no one before You steal right under my door I kneel ’cause I want you some more I want you some more, I want you some more…
Song/Lyrics Notes: This song is found on U2’s How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb album. What it Means to Me: This is apparently a song dedicated to the Edge’s daughter. I would have to say it’s my favorite on the album because of its message and emotion. I like the encouragement to be yourself, and to not get too “good” at smiling, crying, or celebrity (in other words, to not get too polished or insincere). I also love the lines: “I kneel, ’cause I want you some more”. Beautiful.
