U2 - "Spanish Eyes"
  B-side for "I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For"

  Simple, beautiful song, makes a damn nice acoustic piece, too (a
U2 rareity).

Lyrics:

Spanish Eyes

Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Empty heart, beat tight as a drum stick
Empty love, she'll shine like a song
Wey hey hey, baby hang on

Our love shines like rain
With those Spanish eyes
Spanish eyes

Wey hey hey, here she comes
Comes in colours
Know she's gonna turn the daylight on
Because I love the way you talk to me
And I love the way you walk to me
And I need you more than you need me, yeah

Our love shines like rain
In those Spanish eyes
Spanish eyes
I'd cross the world for green and gold
But it's those Spanish eyes that get me home
Home again

Hey hey, baby hang on
Wey hey hey, you know that the night is young
Dazzled by lights that shine in your eyes
I'm standing in the shadows & wait for the night
Forever in fever, forever in heat
You pick me up, don't put me out on the street
Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Wey hey hey, baby hang on
Because I love the way you talk to me
And I love the way you're mean to me
And I need you


  Is it me, or is this one of the most kick-ass songs they've ever
done?
