AFFIRMATION

I believe the sun should never set upon an argument
I believe we place our happiness in other people’s hands
I believe that junk food tastes so good because it’s bad for you
I believe your parents did the best job they knew how to do
I believe that beauty magazines promote low self esteem
I believe I’m loved when I’m completely by myself alone
CHORUS:
I believe in karma what you give is what you get returned
I believe you can’t appreciate real love ‘til you’ve been burned
I believe the grass is no more greener on the other side
I believe you don’t know what you’ve got until you say goodbye

I believe you can’t control or choose your sexuality
I believe that trust is more important than monogamy
I believe your most attractive features are your heart and soul
I believe that family is worth more than money or gold

I believe the struggle for financial freedom is unfair
I believe the only ones who disagree are millionaires
CHORUS
I believe forgiveness is the key to your unhappiness
I believe that wedded bliss negates the need to be undressed
I believe that God does not endorse TV evangelists
I believe in love surviving death into eternity
CHORUS

Beautiful Day
U2
(from »All That You Can't Leave Behind«)


The heart is a bloom
Shoots up through the stony ground
There's no room
No space to rent in this town


You're out of luck
And the reason that you had to care
The traffic is stuck
And you're not moving anywhere


You thought you'd found a friend
To take you out of this place
Someone you could lend a hand
In return for grace


It's a beautiful day
Sky falls, you feel like
It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away


You're on the road
But you've got no destination
You're in the mud
In the maze of her imagination


You love this town
Even if that doesn't ring true
You've been all over
And it's been all over you


It's a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
It's a beautiful day


Touch me
Take me to that other place
Teach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case


See the world in green and blue
See China right in front of you
See the canyons broken by cloud
See the tuna fleets clearing the sea out
See the Bedouin fires at night
See the oil fields at first light
And see the bird with a leaf in her mouth
After the flood all the colors came out


It was a beautiful day
Don't let it get away
Beautiful day


Touch me
Take me to that other place
Reach me
I know I'm not a hopeless case


What you don't have you don't need it now
What you don't know you can feel it somehow
What you don't have you don't need it now
Don't need it now
Was a beautiful day

Heaven and Hell
U2

Once you get a chance
You come to baby
Right back, you call me down
Used to think you wanted nothing to do
Was to say nothing at all


You went like the one time
A two time
You're back, and me
Drop off the back seat
Of a bad car
Where finders
Came alone


Bono: »F«

Wishing her out of my life
Wishing her...


What am I to do
Came a talk to street
And a time that you listen
Don't you beg the time on me


They said you oughta call her back
I wanna, but afraid to say
I won't hang up on you baby, child
Nothing feels like this before


Here in in my life
Yeah in heaven and hell
Baby you're heaven and hell
Heaven and hell


Bono: »F«


Oh, heaven and hell


All the time...


Want a chance to hold you
Want a chance to kill
I want a chance to keep you awake at night
When the sunlight burns through your love


But you can't always get
Everything you want
You take cards from all under the table
You're heaven, heaven and hell


Baby you're heaven...heaven and hell
Yeah, you're heaven...heaven and hell


Cover me...


Bono: »E!«


Bono: »Okay organ. Just organ.«


Darkness...
You light up my darkness
You light up my darkness
And open up...


Bono: »F«

Bono: »Organ.«

Bono: »This time when we come in, come in a little bit quietly. Not the drums, but everyone else.«

Heaven...
