The Fly Lyrics

Oh, baby child 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 You 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 Love, we shine like a burning star We're falling from the sky... / A man will beg A man will crawl On the sheer face of love / tonight Like a fly on a wall 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 their grief Oh and love Love, we shine like a burning star We're falling from the sky... / A man will rise A man will fall On the sheer face of love / ...tonight Like a fly from a wall It's no secret at all Love, we shine like a burning star We're falling from the sky, tonight Love, we shine like a burning star We're falling from the sky... / A man will rise A man will fall On the sheer face of love / ...tonight Like a fly from a wall It's no secret at all Oh yeah It's no secret that the stars are falling from the sky The universe exploding 'cause of one man's lie Look, yeah, I gotta go, yeah, I'm running outta change There's a lot of things, if I could, I'd rearrange Written by: David Howell Evans, Paul David Hewson, Adam Charles Clayton, Larry Jr. Mullen
