U2 - The Wanderer Lyrics
I went out walking through the streets paved with goldLifted some stonesSaw the skin and bonesOf a city without a soulI went out walking under an atomic skyWhere the ground wont turnAnd the rain it burnsLike the tears when I said goodbyeYeah I went with nothingNothing but the thought of youI went wanderingI went drifting through the capitals of tinWhere men cant walkOr freely talkAnd sons turn their fathers inI stopped outside a church houseWhere the citizens like to sitThey say they want the kingdomBut they dont want God in itI went out ridingDown that ol eight laneI passed by a thousand signsLooking for my own nameI went with nothingBut the thought youd be there tooLooking for youI went out thereIn search of experienceTo taste and to touchAnd to feel as muchAs a man canBefore he repentsI went out searching, lookin for one good manA spirit who would not bend or breakWho would sit at his fathers right handI went out walking with a Bible and a gunThe word of God lay heavy on my heartI was sure I was the oneNow jesus, dont you wait upJesus, Ill be home soonYeah I went out for the papersTold her Id be back by noonYeah I left with nothingBut the thought youd be there tooLooking for you...Yeah I left with nothingNothing but the thought of you...I went wandering
