Píseň: White As Snow

Interpret:
U2
Album:
No Line on the Horizon
Where I came from there were no hills at all 
The land was flat, the highway straight and wide 
My brother and I would drive for hours 
Like we had years instead of days 
Our faces as pale as the dirty snow 


Once I knew there was a love divine 
Then came a time I thought it knew me not 
Who can forgive forgiveness where forgiveness is not 
Only the lamb as white as snow 


And the water, it was icy 
As it washed over me 
And the moon shone above me 


Now this dry ground it bears no fruit at all 
Only poppies laugh under the crescent moon 
The road refuses strangers 
The land the seeds we sow 
Where might we find the lamb as white as snow 


As boys we would go hunting in the woods 
To sleep the night shooting out the stars 
Now the wolves are every passing stranger 
Every face we cannot know 
If only a heart could be as white as snow 
If only a heart could be as white as snow
