Iris (Hold Me Close) - U2

The star, that gives us light

Has been gone a while

But it’s not an illusion

The ache in my heart

Is so much a part of who I am

Something in your eyes

Took a thousand years to get here

Something in your eyes

Took a thousand years, a thousand years

Hold me close, hold me close and don’t let me go

Hold me close like I’m someone that you might know

Hold me close the darkness Just lets us see

Who we are I’ve got your life inside of me

Iris Iris

Once we are born, we begin to forget

The very reason we came But you

I’m sure I’ve met

Long before the night the stars went out

We’re meeting up again

Hold me close, hold me close and don’t let me go

Hold me close like I’m someone that you might know

Hold me dose, the darkness Just lets us see

Who we are I’ve got your life inside of me

Iris Iris

The stars are bright but do they know

The universe is beautiful but cold

You took me by the hand

I thought that I was leading you

But It was you made me your man

Machine I dream where you are

Iris standing In the hall

She tells me I can do It all

Iris wakes to my nightmares

Don’t fear the world it isn’t there

Iris playing on the strand

She buries the boy beneath the sand,

Iris says that I will be the death of her

It was not me Iris Iris

Free yourself, to be yourself If only you could see yourself

Free yourself, to be yourself If only you could see
