MYSTERIOUS WAYS
Lyrics: Bono. Music: U2.
Johnny take a walk with your sister the moon
Let her pale light in to fill up your room
You've been living underground, eating from a can
You've been running away from what you don't understand
Love
She's slippy
You're sliding down
She'll be there when you hit the ground
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
She moves in mysterious ways
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
She moves in mysterious ways
Johnny take a dive with your sister in the rain
Let her talk about the things you can't explain
To touch is to heal, to hurt is to steal
If you wanna kiss the sky better learn how to kneel
On your knees, boy!
She's the wave
She turns the tide
She sees the man inside the child
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
She moves in mysterious ways
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
She moves in mysterious ways
She moves in mysterious ways
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
Lift my days and light up my nights
One day you will look
Back
And you'll see
Where
You were held
How
By this love
Why
You could stand there and not move on this moment
Follow this feeling...
She moves in mysterious ways
It's all right, it's all right, it's all right
We move through miracle days
She moves with it
She moves with it
Lift my days and light up my nights

VIDEO
Director: Stephane Sedhanoui. Concept: U2 frolic in Tangiers as their actions are recorded in a bizarrely flowing, reflecting, and pulsating camera technique.
Chris' Thoughts: ****. Fun to watch and matches the song's spirit very well... belly dancers rule!
