Bad (includes 'Ruby Tuesday' and 'Sympathy for the Devil') Songtext
von U2

If you twist and turn away
If you tear yourself in two again
If I could, yes, I would
If I could, I would let it go

Surrender
Dislocate

If I could throw this lifeless lifeline to the wind
Leave this heart of clay, see you walk, walk away
Into the night, and through the rain
Into the half light and through the flame

If I could, through myself, set your spirit free
I′d lead your heart away, see you break, breakaway
Into the light and to the day

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh


To let it go and so to fade away
To let it go and so fade away
Wide awake, I'm wide awake
Wide awake
I′m not sleeping, oh no, no, no

If you should ask, then maybe they'd tell you what I would say
True colours fly in blue and black
Bruised silken sky and burning flak
Colours crash, collide in bloodshot eyes

Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
If I could, you know I would
If I could, I would let it go

This desperation, dislocation
Separation, condemnation, revelation
In temptation, isolation, desolation

Let it go and so to fade away
To let it go, oh yeah, and so fade away
To let it go, oh no, and so to fade away
I'm wide awake, I′m wide awake
Wide awake

I′m not sleeping
Oh no, no, no
