Shadows and Tall Trees / Saturday Matinee Songtext
von U2

Back to the cold restless streets at night
I talk to myself about tomorrow night
Walls of white protest
A gravestone in name
Who is it now?
It′s always the same

Who is it now? Who calls me inside?
Are the leaves on the trees
Just living disguise
I walk sweet rain tragic comedy
I'll walk home again
To the street melody

But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know

Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees


Life through a window
Discolored pain
Mrs. Brown′s washing is always the same
I walk street rain tragic comedy
I'll walk home again
To the street melody

But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know

Out there

Do you feel in me?
Anything redeeming
Any worthwhile feeling
Is love like a tightrope
Hanging from the ceiling

But I know, oh no
But I know, oh no
But I know

Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees


Shadows, shadows, shadows
Shadows, shadows, shadows
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees

Shadows, shadows, shadows
Shadows, shadows, shadows
Shadows and tall trees
Shadows and tall trees
