During the Joshua Tree tour, Bono woke up in his LA hotel with part of this song in his head. He initially thought it was an old Dylan song but he couldn’t place it. Bono then drove out to see Dylan in person to ask him about the song. Dylan told Bono that it wasn’t his, and they worked on completin...
[Verse 1]
Love rescue me
Come forth and speak to me
Raise me up
And don't let me fall
No man is my enemy
My own hands imprison me
Love rescue me
[Verse 2]
Many strangers have I met
On the road to my regret
Many lost who seek to find themselves in me
They ask me to reveal
The very thoughts they would conceal
Love, rescue me
[Bridge]
And the sun in the sky
Makes a shadow of you and I
Stretching out as the sun sinks in the sea
I'm here without a name
In the palace of my shame
I said, love, rescue me
[Verse 3]
In the cold mirror of a glass
I see my reflection pass
I see the dark shades of what I used to be
I see the purple of her eyes
The scarlet of my lies
Love, rescue me
[Bridge]
Yea though I walk
In the valley of the shadow
Yet, I will fear no evil
I have cursed thy rod and staff
They no longer comfort me
Love, rescue me
[Verse 4]
Sha la la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la, sha la la la
Sha la la la la
I said love, love, rescue me
[Verse 5]
I said love
Climb up the mountains, said love
I said love
Oh my love on the hill
On the hill of the sun
I'm on the eve of a storm
And my word you must believe in love
I said love, rescue me
[Verse 6]
Oh yeah, oh yeah, oh yeah
Oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Yeah, I'm here without a name
In the palace of my shame
I said love, rescue me
[Verse 7]
I've conquered my past
The future is here at last
I stand at the entrance to a new world I can see
The ruins to the right of me
Will soon have lost sight of me
Love rescue me
