[Verse 1]
When you stop seeing beauty
You start growing old
The lines on your face
Are a map to your soul
When you stop taking chances
You'll stay where you sit
You won't live any longer
But it'll feel like it, oh

[Chorus]
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain
Oh, oh, ah
In the summer rain, mmm

[Verse 2]
Tequila and orange, Jamaica and rum
At the Moreilla, honey on my tongue
In a small boat on a generous sea
You let me be your enemy
A tiny hand with a grip on the world
Holding our breath now, diving for pearls

[Chorus]
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
I lost myself in the summer rain, hey
Oh, oh

[Refrain]
Just as you find me, always I will be
A little bit too free with myself
Just as you find me, always I will be
A little bit too free with myself
Mmm, mmm

[Chorus]
I lost myself in the summer rain
I lost myself
Now there's no one else
In the summer rain

[Post-Chorus]
Raining down
It's raining down
It, rain
Raining down
Raining down

[Refrain]
Just as you find me, always I will be
A little bit too free with myself
Just as you find me, always I will be
A little bit too free with myself
Mmm
(Cha-cha-cha)

[Outro]
It's not why you're running
It's where you're going
It's not what you're dreaming
But what you're gonna do
It's not where you're born
It's where you belong
It's not how weak
But what will make you strong

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.
