[Verse 1]
The more you see, the less you know
The less you find out as you grow
I knew much more then than I do now
Neon heart, dayglo eyes, a city lit by fireflies
They're advertising in the skies for people like us
[Pre-Chorus]
And I miss you when you're not around
I'm, I'm getting ready to leave the ground
[Chorus]
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
[Verse 2]

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights

Time won't leave me as I am
Time won't take the boy out of this man
[Chorus]
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
Oh, you look so beautiful tonight
In the city of blinding lights
[Outro]
The more you know, the less you feel
But some pray for, others steal
Blessings are not just for the ones who kneel
Luckily, luckily
Luckily
Luckily
Luckily

The Edge:
What’s fun is to hear things like ‘City of Blinding Lights’, which sounds like a completely different song lyric to me, because Bono’s interpreting it in a way that he couldn’t possibly have done with the rock version. The same is true for a lot of them, where you’re hearing it in a diffe...
