Love Song Lyrics - Original of the Species by U2

Category: Power of Love

U2

 

Original of the Species - U2

 

 

Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go, you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn't get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it, no
And you'll never be alone
Come on now, show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it
Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more...




Song/Lyrics Notes: This song is found on U2's How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb album.
What it Means to Me: This is apparently a song dedicated to the Edge's daughter. I would have to say it's my favorite on the album because of its message and emotion. I like the encouragement to be yourself, and to not get too "good" at smiling, crying, or celebrity (in other words, to not get too polished or insincere). I also love the lines: "I kneel, 'cause I want you some more". Beautiful.
