A favorite song

Has anyone ever asked you what your favorite song is? Whenever someone asks me that, I usually say something like "Ummm, uhhhh, errrr, there are too many to choose from!"

I've finally decided though that U2's "Where The Streets Have No Name" is at least ONE of my favorite songs. I included the lyrics below and the video. Whenever I hear this song, I feel inspired to stretch out my arms and take off running. I've never watched the video until now... it really shows this song's age. :)



I wanna run, I want to hide
I wanna tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I wanna reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel sunlight on my face
I see the dust cloud disappear
Without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do


The city's aflood
And our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name


Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love
Burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do


Our love turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, and I see our love
See our love turn to rust
Oh, we're beaten and blown by the wind
Blown by the wind
Oh, when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do
