Picture of You (X+W) Songtext
von U2

My cell is ringing, no ID, I want to know who′s calling
My garden's overgrown, I go out on my bellies, crawling
I got CCTV, pornography, CNBC
I got the nightly news to get to know the enemy

All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is a picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it

I′m going nowhere, where I am, it is a lot of fun
There in the desert to dismantle an atomic bomb
I watch you, shadow box, check the stocks, I'm in detox
Want a lot of what you've got if what you′ve got can make this stop

All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it


Save me, savе me from myself
I know that you′ve been good to mе
Now I need you not to be
Wake me, I fear I can't be asleep
Try not to look so bored
You′re buying things you cannot afford
I got yours, and I know you want mine
Xanax and wine

All I want is a picture of you
All I want is to get right next to you
All I want is your picture in a locket
Your face in my pocket, take a pill to stop it

Save me, save me from myself
I know that you've been good to me
Now I need you not to be
Wake me, I fear I can′t be asleep
I'm buying things I cannot afford
I′m on a high diving board
I got yours, and I know you want mine
Xanax and wine

Don't you worry 'bout your mind
Seems I worry all the time
Don′t you worry, you′ll be fine
You should worry 'bout the day
That the pain, it goes away
You know I miss mine sometimes


There is no fiction that will truly fit the situation
I′m documenting every detail, every conversation
Not used to talking to somebody in their body
Somebody in a body, is somebody in a body?

In a body, there's somebody, somebody in a body
Somebody in a body, there′s somebody
