U2 The Crystal Ballroom (12' Mix)

AlphabetLyrics.com

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. [x4]

(Buttoning unbuttoning her coco dress)

We're the ghosts of love and we haunt this place
We're the ghosts of love. [x2]

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.
