Seconds Lyrics by U2

Seconds

It takes a second to say goodbye

say goodbye.
It takes a second to say goodbye

Say goodbye
say bye bye where are you going
to now?

Fall
rise and... Fall
rise and...
Lightning flashes across the sky

From east to west you do or die.
Like a thief in the night

You see the world by candlelight.

Fall
rise and... Fall
rise and...
In an apartment on Times Square

You can assemble them anywhere.
Held to ransom
hell to pay

A revolution every day.
U.S.S.R.
D.D.R.
London
New York
Peking

It's the puppets
It's the puppets who pull the
strings.

Say goodbye
say goodbye

Say goodbye
say goodbye

It takes a second to say goodbye

Push the button and pull the plug
say goodbye.

Fall
rise and... Fall
rise and...
They're doing the atomic bomb

Do they know where the dance comes from?
Yes
they're doing the atomic bomb

They want you to sing along.
say goodbye
say goodbye.
