I enjoy the simplicity and purity of the song and the singing. Some peacefulness and quiet arise in this beauty. Caroline Engvall covers this U2 song and shared it on YouTube.
Find the lyrics below. Can somebody lend me their giraffe ears to hear what it might mean? I feel confused about this song text.
Is the poet saying that he or she is suffering, independent of the presence or absence of the beloved one?
See the stone set in your eyes
See the thorn twist in your side
I wait for you
Sleight of hand and twist of fate
On a bed of nails she makes me wait
And I wait without you
With or without you
With or without you
Through the storm we reach the shore
You gave it all but I want more
And I′m waiting for you
With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
My hands are tied, my body bruised
She′s got me with
Nothing to win and
Nothing left to lose
And you give yourself away
And you give yourself away
And you give
And you give
And you give yourself away
With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you
With or without you
I can’t live
With or without you
With or without you
Ooooooooo
Ooooooooo
Ooooooooo
With or without you
With or without you
I can′t live
With or without you
With or without you
Uuuu
Uuuu
