Artist/Band: U2
Lyrics for Song: Ultra Violet (Light My Way)
Lyrics for Album: Achtung Baby



Sometimes I feel like I don't know
Sometimes I feel like checkin' out
I want to get it wrong
Can't always be strong
And love it won't be long...

Oh sugar, don't you cry
Oh child, wipe the tears from your eyes
You know I need you to be strong
And the day is as dark as the night is long
Feel like trash, you make me feel clean
I'm in the black, can't see or be seen

Baby, baby, baby...light my way
(alright now)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way

You bury your treasure
Where it can't be found
But your love is like a secret
That's been passed around
There is a silence that comes to a house
Where no one can sleep
I guess it's the price of love
I know it's not cheap

(oh, come on)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way
(oh, come on)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way

Oh...ultraviolet...
Ultraviolet...
Ultraviolet...
Ultraviolet...

Baby, baby, baby...light my way

I remember
When we could sleep on stones
Now we lie together
In whispers and moans
When I was all messed up
And I had opera in my head
Your love was a light bulb
Hanging over my bed

Baby, baby, baby...light my way
(oh, come on)
Baby, baby, baby...light my way

Ultraviolet...
[Repeat 4 times]

Baby, baby, baby...
Baby, baby, baby...
Baby, baby, baby...light my way
[Repeat 3 times]

Baby, baby, baby...light my way


Ultra Violet (Light My Way)

Released on the 1991 album Achtung Baby, Ultra Violet (Light My Way) stands as a defining track in U2's evolution toward electronic and dance-oriented soundscapes. The song features the iconic vocal hook 'Ultra violet, light my way,' delivered by Bono, which became a signature element of the band's late-90s and 2000s repertoire. Musically, it blends rock instrumentation with synthesizers and drum machines, reflecting the group's experimentation during the Achtung Baby era. The track has since been widely covered by artists across various genres, cementing its status as a staple in modern pop culture. Its enduring popularity highlights U2's ability to adapt their sonic identity while maintaining their core melodic strengths.
