Version: Live 2001-06-06 (12:28) First Appears On: Electrical Storm Single, 2002
Written By: U2 / Bono Performed By: U2 live in Boston

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go

Surrender
Dislocate

If I could through myself
Set your spirit free
I'd lead your heart astray
Just to see you break, break away
Into the light, to the rain
Into the light
Out from over the flame

To let it go
So not fade away
To let it go
So not fade away

Wide awake
I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no
I'm not sleeping
Oh, no no

If they should ask
Well maybe they'd
Tell me what I should say
True colors fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flag
Colors crash, collide blood shot eyes

If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would
Let it go...

This separation
Separation
Isolation
In temptation
Isolation
Not revelation
Isolation
Not revelation
Isolation

Let it go
So not fade away
To let it go
So not fade, fade
Fade away
Fade away

Not fade away
No, no
Not fade away

(Woo-hoo sing it)
(Find my way)
(Come on, help me do it)

Love
Not fade away
No no no no no no
No no no no no no no
No no no no

I'm wide awake
Wide awake
Wide awake
I'm not sleeping

I'm not sleeping

How long, sing this song
How long to sing this song
How long... (to sing this song)
(How long to sing this song)
(How long to sing this song)
(How long to sing this song)
(How long to sing this song)

(How long...)
(Oh)

What can I give back to God
For the blessings he poured out on me
What can I give back to God
For the blessings he poured out on me
I'll lift high the cup of salvation
That is a toast to God
For to fufill the promise I made to Him
From the heart

I want to run
I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold me tonight
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I wanna dance, dance, dance in the dirty rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still building
And burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
(Oh yeah)

The city's aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
No sorrow and there's no shame
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still we're building
And burning down love
We're burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Still we're building
And burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all... I can do

It's all we can do
This is all we can do
