Song Lyrics:
[Edge talking]
Well we wrote the song I Still Haven’t
Found What I’m Looking For
Which, um, is a gospel song pretty much
I mean we- it doesn’t sound much like a gospel song
The way we do it
But if you look at the lyric and the basic, music
That’s exactly what it is
And we, we got a cassete from a friend of ours at Island
Records
Of uh, a gospel choir covering the song
And it sounded like, sounded totally different
But it sounded really exciting and new
So we travelled down to Harlem
And visited this church in the middle of Harlem
Where this choir were, uh, going through a rehearsal
And, uh, we played with them
And got the idea to play with them
To do kind of, combination arrangement
[Larry]
My own Conga
My very own Conga
[Choir Director]
Take it away, and-
[Bono singing]
I have climbed the highest mountain
I have run through the fields
Only to be with you
Only to be with you
I have run
I have crawled
I have scaled these city wall
These city walls
Only to be with you
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
I have kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire / Burning like this fire
This burning desire / Burning with desire
I have spoke with the tongue of angels
I have held the hand of a devil
It was warm in the night / In the night
I was cold as a stone / Cold as stone
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
Alright, sing for me yeah yeah
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
I believe in the kingdom come / I believe,
the kingdom come
All the colors bleed into one / Colors, yeah yeah
Ooh I believe it / Believe it
You know I do, well / I believe it
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for
Nope, nope, nope, nope no woo / What I
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for / I still,
haven’t found what I’m
Help, help what I’m looking for no / Looking now, searching,
searching wide
But I still haven’t found what I’m looking for / I still,
haven’t found
