U2 shadows and tall trees lyrics

Back to the cold restless streets at night

I talk to myself about tomorrow night

Walls of white protest

A gravestone in name

Who is it now

It's always the same

Who is it now

Who calls me inside

Are the leaves on the trees

Just a living disguise

I walk the sweet rain tragicomedy

I'll walk home again

To the street melody



But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know



Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees

Shadows and tall trees



Life through a window

Discoloured pain

Mrs. Brown's washing is always the same

I walk street rain tragicomedy

I'll walk home again

To the street melody



But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know



...out there...



Do you feel in me

Anything redeeming

Any worthwhile feeling

Is life like a tightrope

Hanging from the ceiling



But I know, oh no

But I know, oh no

But I know



Shadows and Tall Trees

Shadows and Tall Trees

Shadows and Tall Trees

Shadows and Tall Trees

Shadow...shadow...shadow

Shadow...shadow...shadow

Shadows and Tall Trees

Shadows and Tall Trees

Don't be my shadow...shadow...shadow

It's only my shadow...shadow...shadow

Shadows and Tall Trees
