Vanessa Carlton - Where The Streets Have No Name

Vanessa Carlton - Where The Streets have no name

I want to run
I want to hide
I want to tear down the walls
That hold me inside
I want to reach out
And touch the flame
Where the streets have no name

I want to feel, sunlight on my face
I see that dust cloud disappear without a trace
I want to take shelter from the poison rain
Where the streets have no name

Where the streets have no name
Where the streets have no name
We're still building
Then burning down love, burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you...
It's all I can do

The cities a flood
And our love it turns to rust
We're beaten and blown by the wind
We're trampled in dust
I'll show you a place
High on a desert plain
Where the streets have no name

Where the steeets have no name
Where the steeets have no name
Still building
Then burning down love
We're burning down love
And when I go there
I go there with you
It's all I can do

this is gorgeous....i don't get why people are saying negative things about it. of course you could never touch u2's original, but it's not like vanessa was trying to do that...she just wanted to record her own version. geez.

I LOVE U2. I LOVE the original of this. And, d'ya know what? I think this version deserves some credit.

Brave girl for taking it on. Talented girl for pulling it off. And total legend for doing it justice. In to my favorites, me thinks.

I LOVE THIS! I love both versions, but this.... total eargasm... Is it wrong to be addictied to a song...?

[powelpowelmayer]

U2 is one of the best. And this song is "All Time Best" to me. I think I love this song forever.

By the way I love this cover. She plays this song with herown way. I respects her :D
