The Fly Lyrics By U2

    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 uniexploding ‘cosa 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
