Please by U2

So you never knew love
Until you crossed the line of grace
And you never felt wanted
Until you'd someone slap your face
And you never felt alive
Until you'd almost wasted away
You had to win
You couldn't just pass
The smartest ass
At the top of the class
Your flyin' colors
Your family tree
And all your lessons
In history
Please
Please
Please
Get up off your knees, now
Please
Please
Please
Leave it out

So you never knew
How low you'd stoop to make that call
And you never knew
What was on the ground
Until 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 makin' the news
Your holy war
Your northern star
Your sermon on the mount
From the boot of your car
Please
Please
Please
Get up off your knees, now
Please
Please
Please
Leave it out
'Cause love is pain
And love is tough
But love is not
What you're thinkin' of

September
Streets capsizin'
Spillin' over down the drains
Shards of glass
Splinters like rain
But you could only feel
Your own pain
October, talk gettin' nowhere
November
December
Remember, we just startin' again
Please
Please
Please
Get up off your knees now
Please

'Cause love is big
Is bigger than us
But love is not
What you're thinkin' of

It's what lovers deal
It's what lovers steal
You know I've found it hard to receive
'Cause you
My love
I could never
Believe
