Hawkmoon 269 lyrics

[Verse 1: Bono]
Like a desert needs rain
Like a town needs a name
I need your love
Like a drifter needs a room
Hawkmoon
I need your love
I need your love

[Verse 2: Bono]
Like a rhythm unbroken
Like drums in the night
Like sweet soul music
Like sunlight
I need your love

[Verse 3: Bono, The Edge]
Like coming home
And you don't know where you've been
Like black coffee
Like nicotine
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
Oh, I need your love (I need your love)

[Chorus: Bono & The Edge, Bono]
When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love
I need your love
[Verse 4: Bono, The Edge]
Like a phoenix rising
Needs a holy tree
Like the sweet revenge
Of a bitter enemy
I need your love (I need your love)

[Verse 5: Bono, The Edge]
Like heat needs the sun
Like honey on her tongue
Like the muzzle of a gun
Like oxygen
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)

[Chorus: Bono & The Edge, Bono, The Edge]
When the night has no end
And the day yet to begin
As the room spins around
I need your love
I need your love, oh
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love
I need your love
[Verse 6: Bono]
Like thunder needs rain
Like a preacher needs pain
Like tongues of flame
Like a sheet stain
Need your love
I need your love

[Verse 7: Bono, The Edge]
Like a needle needs a vein
Like someone to blame
Like a thought unchained
Like a runaway train
Need your love, I need your love
Need your love, I need your love, oh
I need your love (I need your love)
I need your love (I need your love), oh

[Verse 8: Bono, Edna Wright, Carolyn Willis & Billie Barnum]
Like faith needs a doubt
(In the heart of the beat of love)
Like a freeway out
(In the heart of the beat of love)
Need your love
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
Like powder needs a spark
(In the heart of the beat of love)
Like lies need the dark
(In the heart of the beat of love)
I need your love
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
[Outro: Edna Wright, Carolyn Willis & Billie Barnum]
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
(In the heart of the beat of love)
