U2 - The Fly lyrics

It's no secret that the stars
Are falling from the sky
It's no secret that our world
Is in darkness tonight
They say the sun is sometimes
Eclipsed by the moon
Y' know I don't see you when
She walks in the room

It's no secret that a friend is
Someone who lets you help
It's no secret that a liar
Won't believe anyone else
They say a secret is something
You tell one other person
So I'm telling you, child

A man will beg (Love, we shine like a)
A man will crawl (Burning star)
On the sheer face of love
(We're falling from)
Like a fly on a wall (The sky tonight)
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that a conscience
Can sometimes be a pest
It's no secret ambition bites
The nails of success
Every artist is a cannibal
Every poet is a thief
All kill their inspiration and
Sing about the grief

A man will rise (Love, we shine like a)
A man will fall (Burning star)
From the sheer face of love
(We're falling from)
Like a fly from a wall (The sky tonight)
It's no secret at all

Love, we shine like a burning star
We're falling from the sky tonight

A man will rise (Love, we shine like a)
A man will fall (Burning star)
From the sheer face of love
(We're falling from)
Like a fly from a wall (The sky tonight)
It's no secret at all

It's no secret that the stars
Are falling from the sky
The universe exploding 'cos-a one man's lie
Look I gotta go, yeah
I'm running outta change
There's a lot of things if
I could I'd rearrange
