U2 - Wild Honey lyrics

In the days

When we were swinging from the trees

I was a monkey

Stealing honey from a swarm of bees

I could taste

I could taste you even then

And I would chase you down the wind

You could go there if you please

Wild honey

And if you go there, go with me

Wild honey

Did I know you?

Did I know you even then?

Before the clocks kept time

Before the world was made

From the cruel sun

You were shelter

You were my shelter and my shade

If you go with me

Wild honey

You can do just what you please

Wild honey

Yeah, just blowing in the breeze

Wild honey

Wild, wild, wild

I'm still standing, I'm still standing

Where you left me

Are you still growing wild

With everything tame around you?

I send you flowers

Cut flowers for your hall

I know your garden's full

But is there sweetness at all?

Oh oh oh

If you go there with me

Wild honey

Won't you take me, take me please

Wild honey

Yeah, swinging through the trees

Wild honey

Wild, wild, wild
