One Tree Hill - Lyrics by U 2


Lyrics
We turn away to face the coldenduring chill
As the day begs the night for mercy
Your sun so bright it leaves no shadowonly scars
Carved into stone on the face of earth
The moon is up and over One Tree Hill
We see the sun go down in your eyes
You ran like river to the sea
And in our world a heart of darknessa firezone
Where poets speak their heartsthen bleed for it
Jara sang his song a weaponin the hands of love
You know his blood still cries from the ground
It runs like a river to the sea
I don't believe in painted roses or bleeding hearts
While bullets rape the night of merciful
I'll see you again when the stars fall from the sky
And the moon has turned red over One Tree Hill
Like a river to the sea
