SINGER: U2
SONG:The Wanderer
I went out walking through streets paved with gold lifted some stones saw the skin and bones of a city without a soul i went out walking under an atomic sky where the ground won't turn and the rain it burns like the tears when i said goodbye Yeah i went with nothing nothing but the thought of you i went wandering I went drifting through the capitals of tin where men can't walk or freely talk and sons turn their fathers in i stopped outside a church house where the citizens like to sit they say they want the kingdom but they don't want god in it I went out riding down that old eight lane i passed by a thousand signs looking for my own name I went with nothing but the thought you'd be there too looking for you I went out there in search of experience to taste and to touch and to feel as much as a man can before he repents I went out searching looking for one good man a spirit who would not bend or break who would sit at his father's right hand i went out walking with a bible and a gun the word of god lay heavy on my heart i was sure i was the one now jesus, don't you wait up jesus, i'll be home soon yeah i went out for the papers told her i'd be back by noon Yeah i left with nothing but the thought you'd be there too looking for you Yeah i left with nothing nothing but the thought of you i went wandering
