U2 - Wild Irish Rose lyrics

In a field by a river My love and i did lie And on my naked shoulder She too proud to cry She said that i must leave her An icy tear she froze How could i melt the heart Of a wild irish rose Well a gypsy she has made of me A servent of the street And back to bed i've travelled To taste a love as sweet Well the heart it knows no reasons And reason never knows As i lie with them i'm thinking Of a wild irish rose Well i saw the city of angels It brought a devil out in me And hell's hotel on sunset Showed a who*e no mercy As the orange sky was screaming From the roof i let her go These are the dizzying heights that brought me My wild irish rose Now red is the rose That she layed on my grave A life is what she wanted And a life i surely gave Like a hundred men before me They lay lying here in rows Young men, bloody As a wild irish rose
