U2 seconds lyrics

It takes a second to say goodbye 

 Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh 

 It takes a second to say goodbye 

 Say goodbye, oh, oh, oh 

 Say bye bye 

 Where are you going to now? 

  

 (Fall, rise and . . . Fall, rise and . . .) 

 Lightning flashes across the sky 

 East to west, do or die. 

 Like a thief in the night 

 We see the world by candlelight 

  

 (Fall, rise and . . . Fall, rise and . . .) 

 In an apartment on Times Square 

 You can assemble them anywhere 

 Held to ransom, hell to pay 

 A revolution everyday 

 U.S.S.R., D.D.R., London, New York, Peking 

 It's the puppets, it's the puppets who pull the strings 

  

 Say goodbye, say goodbye 

 It takes a second to say goodbye 

 Push the button and pull the plug, say goodbye 

  

 (Fall, rise and . . . Fall, rise and . . .) 

 And they're doing the atomic bomb 

 Do they know where the dance comes from? 

 Yes, they're doing the atomic bomb 

 And they want you to sing along 

 Say goodbye, say goodbye
