I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For

U2
I've climbed the highest mountains
I've run through the fields
Only to be with you (2x)
I've run I have crawled
I've scaled
These city walls(2x)
Only to be with you
(2x)
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
I've kissed honey lips
Felt the healing in her fingertips
It burned like fire
This burning desire
U2 is an Irish band formed in Dublin in the fall of 1976.
A 14-years-old boy, Larry Mullen Jr. posted a note on
the bulletin board at his high school seeking musicians
for a new band. From the group of hopefuls that showed
up at Mullen's home that first day, a five-piece known
originally as "Feedback" formed with Mullen on drums,
Adam Clayton on bass, Paul Hewson (later nicknamed
"Bono Vox") on vocals, and Dave Evans (later nicknamed
"The Edge) on guitar. Feedback quickly changed their
name to "The Hype", and began rehearsing on weekends
and after school as often as possible, forming genuine
friendships and developing an undeniable chemistry.
Finally they change the name again for the one we know
now:
U2

I've spoken with the tongue of angels


I've held the hand of the devil
It was warm in the night
I was cold as a stone
(2x)
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
I believe in the Kingdom Come
Then all the colors will
Bleed into one
But yes I'm still running
You broke the bonds and you loosed the chains
You carried the cross
And my shame
You know I believe it
(4x)
But I still haven't found
What I'm looking for
