U2 - Stranded (Haiti Mon Amour) lyrics

When the sky falls and the earth quakes We gonna put this back together We won't break When the sky falls and the earth quakes We gonna put this back together We won't break Sak Pase my Port au Princes My Haitian gods and all of my princesses Our condolences as you're fighting against this We're right by your side while we try to make sense of this Heavenly father, help us see through these problems And those that left accept them in your garden See here's my theory The country's already starving So we sacrifice many to shed light on all of them Y'all please pardon me I speak from my heart It's the only way I can see through this tragedy befallen them So let's get involved with them Hand in hand with them Arm in arm with them Til they get strong again When the sky falls Not tomorrow Can't wait until tomorrow Haiti amie, mon amour, Haiti mon amour Not gonna leave you stranded Oh no, oh no, oh no When the sky falls and the earth quakes We gonna put this back together We won't break When the sky falls and the earth quakes We gonna put this back together We won't break We learn from the past New Orleans was flooded So we know we just can't rely on the government We under the rubble again Who we going rumblin' with Who we gonna catch a break A friend lost his mother, and then Carlene Lost her uncles, and then And then buried with no caskets They just put covers on them And the tears fall, and we fight back The story can't end, no not like that No not like this This mob of survivors gonna carry on your name You live on inside us Your memories alive with us You who inspired us To rebuild this country, you just guide us Not tomorrow Can't wait until tomorrow Haiti amie mon amour, Haiti mon amour Not leave gonna leave you stranded Hey Not gonna leave you stranded Oh no, oh no It's not the angels that are on their way It's not the bells of Sainte Trinité The people waiting Position vacant for hands to help Not just to pray Haiti amie mon amour, Haiti mon amour Not gonna leave you stranded Hey Not gonna leave you stranded Oh no, oh no
