U2 Magnificent Lyrics
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 blueOnly love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scarI 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 noiseOnly love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love can heal such a scarJustified till we die, you and I will magnify
The Magnificent
MagnificentOnly love, only love can leave such a mark
But only love, only love unites our heartsJustified till we die, you and I will magnify
The magnificent
Magnificent
