U2 — Summer Rain

When you stop seeing beauty
You start growing old
The lines on your face
Are a map to your soul
When you stop taking chances
You'll stay where you sit
You won't live any longer
But it'll feel like it
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
In the summer rain
Tequila and Orange
Jamaica and rum
At the Moreilla
Honey on my tongue
In a small boat on a generous sea
You let me be your enemy
Tiny hand
With a grip on the world
Holding our breath now
Diving for pearls
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
Oh oh, oh oh
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
Now there's no one else
In the summer rain
Raining down
It's raining down
It rain
Raining now
Raining now
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
(Cha cha cha)
It's not why you're running
It's where you're going
It's not what you're dreaming
But what you're gonna do
It's not where you're born
It's where you belong
It's not how weak
But what will make you strong
You start growing old
The lines on your face
Are a map to your soul
When you stop taking chances
You'll stay where you sit
You won't live any longer
But it'll feel like it
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
In the summer rain
Tequila and Orange
Jamaica and rum
At the Moreilla
Honey on my tongue
In a small boat on a generous sea
You let me be your enemy
Tiny hand
With a grip on the world
Holding our breath now
Diving for pearls
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
Oh oh, oh oh
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
Now there's no one else
In the summer rain
Raining down
It's raining down
It rain
Raining now
Raining now
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
Just as you find me
Always I will be
A little bit too free
With myself
(Cha cha cha)
It's not why you're running
It's where you're going
It's not what you're dreaming
But what you're gonna do
It's not where you're born
It's where you belong
It's not how weak
But what will make you strong

Love them from their beginning, but this just doesn\'t work for me. Music grabs nothing, Lyrics forgotten ten minutes later. They\'ve got better B-Sides like \"Spanish Eyes\".

Well there's a reason it was a B Side. I like the melody. I've never paid attention to the lyrics.
Pretty boring, hasn\'t got the Edge :)

Never heard this song before, but it had my attention from the first chord. What a great guitar sound that was. The rest is a bit tame for U2, but I bet it sounds great live.
Wow! I was going to upload this one, but the only version I have is 128K. I think this is a neat track. The distortion on the 1st guitar & the pure 2nd guitar & vocals make a nice mix. I keep this one in heavy rotation on my MP3 walk-about.
Thanks for playing such a little know track Bill.
