Take me higher

Take me higher

Take me higher

Give me one more chance
And you’ll be satisfied
Give me two more chances
You won’t be denied

Well my heart is where it’s always been
My head is somewhere in between
Give me one more chance
Let me be your lover tonight

You’re the real thing
You’re the real thing
You’re the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child…

Give me one last chance
And I’m gonna make you sing
Give me half a chance
To ride on the waves that you bring

You’re honey child to a swarm of bees
Gonna blow right through you like a breeze
Give me one last dance
We’ll slide down the surface of things

You’re the real thing
(Yeah) You’re the real thing
You’re the real thing
Even better than the real thing
Child…

Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher

We’re free to fly the crimson sky
The sun won’t melt our wings tonight

Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher
Take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher
Take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher
Take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher
Take me higher

Take me higher
Take me higher
You take me higher
Take me higher

U2

U2 is an Irish rock band from Dublin, which started in post-punk but soon incorporated elements from various musical genres (funk, electronica, blues). Composed of Bono (vocals and guitar), The Edge (guitar, keyboards, and vocals), Adam Clayton (bass guitar), and Larry Mullen Jr (drums and percussion), the band is noted for a sound built on melodic instrumentals, and lyrics, filled with spiritual imagery, personal themes and sociopolitical concerns. U2 sold more than 150 million records worldwide, and created some of the most lavish, memorable and profitable concert tours in history. Their success also helped the bandmembers advocate for human rights and philanthropic causes.
