just sounds so vulnerable and it's so musically pleasing. For some reason this little part of the song sounds so much like a "surrender" to what the song is about, like a final plea from Paul to Bono.
Fuck, this tune is amazeballs.

everybody can give it their own read to the song, but according to the innocence vs experience and the brush with mortality narratives, this song has nothing to do with the end of U2.

Originally posted by EDDMB:This tune is fantastic . Its so superior to the live versions I heard from JT tour IMO. Bono's voice was so strained and the tune sounded stale to me . Studio version is so good , and I love the buildup towards the end .
