U2 – Magnificent Lyrics

Rock

Magnificent
Oh, oh, magnificent

I was born, I was born to be with you
In this space and time
After that and ever after
I haven't had a clue
Only to break rhyme
This foolishness can leave a heart black and blue, oh, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar

I was born, I was born to sing for you
I didn't have a choice but to lift you up
And sing whatever song you wanted me to
I give you back my voice from the womb
My first cry, it was a joyful noise, oh, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scar

Justified till we die, you and I will magnify, oh, oh
Magnificent, magnificent, oh

Only love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love unites our hearts

Justified till we die, you and I will magnify, oh, oh
Magnificent, magnificent, magnificent

    Thrilling!!! Continuum of "good old" U2 sound! Rejuvenating. Play it in your car and you will get invisible to the police :-)

    i don't believe it was love that scarred the little boy and marked him in his middle ...... but surely its love that heals the wound inflicted by the cultures in rebellion ... it seems bono and his crew write with an agenda to please both sides of right and wrong ..... a bit double-minded perhaps? .... alas the fallen world
