U2
One (Live At Live 8, Hyde Park, London, 2nd July 2005)
So, this is our moment. This is our time. This is our chance to stand up for what's right. We're not looking for charity. We're looking for justice. We can't fix every problem, but the ones we can, we must
Three thousand Africans, mostly children, die every day of a mosquito bite. We can fix that. We can fix that. Nine thousand…nine thousand people dying every day of a preventable, treatable disease like AIDS. We've got the drugs. We can help thеre. We've got thе drugs. Dirty water, death by dirty water. Well, we can dig wells
If you want to join us, go down on the streets of Edinburgh, or anywhere else. Text us. Call us. These phones, they're dangerous little devices
Eight of the most powerful men on earth are meeting on a golf course in Scotland. There's a lot a stake. We have a message for them: This is your moment, too. Make history, by making poverty history
Is it getting better
Or do you feel the same
Will it make it easier on you now
You got someone to blame
You say
One love
One life
When it's one need in the night
One love
We get to share it
Leaves you darling if you don't care for it
Did I disappoint you
Leave a bad taste in your mouth
You act like you never had love
And you want me to go without
Well it's
Too late
Tonight
To drag the past out into the light
We're one, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
Have you come here for forgiveness
Have you come to raise the dead
Have you come here to play Jesus
To the lepers in your bed
Did I ask too much
More than a lot
You gave me nothing, now it's all I've got
We're one, but we're not the same
We hurt each other then we do it again
You say
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Love is a temple
Love a higher law
Ask me to enter
Then you make me crawl
I can't be holdin' on
To what you've got
When all you've got is hurt
One love
One blood
One life, you got to do what you should
One life
With each other
Sisters, brothers
One life, but we're not the same
We get to carry each other, carry each other
One
Ohh…
You hear us comin' Lord
Hear us call
You hear us knockin', we're knocking at your door
You hear us comin' Lord
Hear us call
See us scratchin', will you make us crawl
Ooohoo...
Ooohoo...
Ooohoo...
Ooohoo...
Oh, oh my love
Oh my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long and lonely time
And time, goes by
So slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love
Godspeed your love
To…Africa
Thank you
