U2
Heartland
[Verse 1]
See the sun rise over her skin
Don't change it
See the sunrise over her skin
Dawn changes everything, everything
And the delta sun
Burns bright and violent

[Verse 2]
Mississippi and the cotton wool heat
Sixty-six, a highway speaks
Of deserts dry
Of cool green valleys
Gold and silver veins
All the shining cities

[Chorus]
In this heartland
In this heartland soil
In this heartland
Heaven knows
This is our heartland
Heartland

[Verse 3]
See the sunrise over her skin
She feels like water in my hand
Freeway like a river
Cuts through this land
Into the side of love
Like a burning spear
And the poison rain
Brings a flood of fear
Through the ghost ranch hills
Death Valley waters
In the towers of steel
Belief goes on and on
[Chorus]
In this heartland
In this heartland soil
In this heartland
Heaven knows this is a heartland
Heartland (Sing a song, sing a song)
Heaven knows this is a heartland
Heartland (Sing a song, sing a song)
Heaven knows
Heartland (Sing a song, sing a song)
Heaven's day here in the heartland
Heartland
