The Crystal Ballroom (12" Mix)
U2 · Songs Of Innocence 2014 · Track 17 of 17
Life begins with the first glance The first kiss and the first dance All of us are wondering why we're here In the crystal ballroom underneath the chandelier
Wet the glass till the glasses sing We punish our hearts till the heart bells ring Cause where we come from we're not always kind The human soul is what love leaves behind
We're the ghosts of love and we haunt this place We're the ghosts of love in every face In the ballroom of the crystal lights Everyone's here with me tonight Everyone but you
Our first chance is their last dance Our life is shaped by another's hands Buttoning unbuttoning her Coco dress Stopping and unstopping every cold caress
Born for bliss, born for this Every human life begins with a kiss Kissed by every kind of possibility And everyone is here tonight with me
We're the ghosts of love and we haunt this place We're the ghosts of love in every face In the ballroom of the crystal lights Everyone's here with me tonight
Everyone but you
Everybody's here with me tonight Everybody's here with me but you [4x]
(Buttoning unbuttoning her Coco dress) [Autotune vocal]
We're the ghosts of love and we haunt this place We're the ghosts of love [2x]
We're the ghosts of love and we haunt this place We're the ghosts of love in every face ...the ballroom of the crystal light
(Born for bliss Born for this Every human life begins with a kiss
Born for bliss Born for this, lay down your life And give me a kiss
Ghosts of love Born for this, lay down your life And give me a kiss
Buttoning unbuttoning her Coco dress
Born for bliss, born for this Every human life begins with a kiss) [Autotune vocal best attempt]
