U2 lemon lyrics

Lemon

See through in the sunlight

She wore lemon

But never in the daylight

She's gonna make you cry

She's gonna make you whisper and moan

And when you're dry

She draws her water from the stone

And I feel

Like I'm slowly, slowly, slowly slipping under

And I feel

Like I'm holding onto nothing



She wore lemon

To colour in the cold grey night

She had heaven

And she held on so tight



A man makes a picture

A moving picture

Through the light projected

He can see himself up close

A man captures colour

A man likes to stare

He turns his money into light to look for her



And I feel

Like I'm drifting, drifting, drifting from the shore

And I feel

Like I'm swimming out to her



Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins



Lemon

See through in the sunlight



A man builds a city

With banks and cathedrals

A man melts the sand so he can

See the world outside

her there

A man makes a car

destination

And builds roads to run them on

A man dreams of leaving

But he always stays behind



And these are the days

When our work has come assunder

And these are the days

When we look for something other



Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins



Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins

Midnight is where the day begins



A man makes a picture

A moving picture

Through the light projected

He can see himself up close

her there

A man captures colour

destination

A man likes to stare

there

He turns his money into light

To look for her

She is the dreamer

She's imagination

Through the light projected

he can see himself up close
