Song Lyrics:
Dave Fanning:
_And it’s here… help me count…16, 14, 13, 12, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1…
Happy New Year! Happy New Decade! Happy New Year and it’s U2!_
…for Auld Lang Syne
We’ll take a cup of kindness yet
For the sake of Auld Lang Syne
Here she comes…the future
Happy Christmas…and Happy New Year to y’all
It’s 1990
Forget about the past
We’re gonna celebrate the future
Where the streets have no name
Oh yeah!
I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls that hold me inside
I wanna reach out and touch the flame, yeah
Where the streets have no name, oh-ha
I want to feel the sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear without a trace
I wanna take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building, then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there, I go there with you
It’s all I can do
I can do it
The city’s a flood and our love turns to rust
We’re beaten and blown by the wind, trampled in dust
I’ll show you a place high on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name, oh-ha
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there, I go there with you
It’s all I can do
I can do it
I can do anything
Oh-oh-oh…
Come with me, y’all
Oh-oh-oh…
I try too hard
Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We’re still building, then 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 I know how to do
Ooo-ooo…
I wanna go there with you
Alright
