Bloody Sunday

U2 · Other Songs - U2

I can't believe the news today

I can't close my eyes and make it go away

How long, how long must we sing this song?

How long, how long?



'Cos tonight

We can be as one, tonight



Broken bottles under children's feet

Bodies strewn across the dead-end street

But I won't heed the battle call

It puts my back up, puts my back up against the wall



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday

Oh, let's go



And the battle's just begun

There's many lost, but tell me who has won?

The trenches dug within our hearts

And mothers, children, brothers, sisters torn apart



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday



How long, how long must we sing this song?

How long, how long?

'Cos tonight

We can be as one, tonight



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday



Wipe the tears from your eyes

Wipe your tears away, I'll wipe your tears away

I'll wipe your tears away

I'll wipe your bloodshot eyes



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday



And it's true we are immune

When fact is fiction and TV reality

And today the millions cry

We eat and drink while tomorrow they die



The real battle just begun

To claim the victory Jesus won on



Sunday, bloody Sunday

Sunday, bloody Sunday
