#U2 #WalkOn #Remastered

Lyrics:

And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring...
And love is not the easy thing....
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can't leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it's a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can't steal it
No they can't even feel it
Walk on, walk on...
Stay safe tonight

You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you've got they can't deny it
Can't sell it, can't buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Home, hard to know what it is if you've never had one
Home, I can't say where it is but I know I'm going home
That's where the hurt is

I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind
You've got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress up
All that you scheme.

    This song got me through treatment for cancer. I'd listen to the CD while the chemo dripped into my veins, but Walk On kept me going. I skipped a treatment to see them in Nov 2001 for the 6th time. Anyone who saw that tour after September, well, you had to be there.
  • This song gave me just a bit of relief and perseverance through a really rough decade long season of anxiety and depression, on the point of a few breaks. Praise God for U2 and their ministry through music.

    For those who carry the pain. Walk on . Let the tears be tears of strength.
  • @BittenByTheBug
    One of the greatest opening guitar riffs of all time. And that chorus... the definition of an anthem. Means so much to so many.

    When I was 5 one of my teachers at school played this song for my class, I was so mindblown that as soon as I got home I asked my dad if he'd ever heard the song. He sat me down and introduced me to one of the best bands ever.
  • This song gives me energy , strength and hope to carry on.

    Love this song. Came out around the time my dad passed (actually Bono's dad passed not long before mine) and I can't hear it without thinking of him and that time. The lyrics seemed so fitting: "You're packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been; a place that has to be believed to be seen." Walk on, Dad. ❤

    I feel like this song applies to what’s going on in the world now.. these are tough times but we will WALK ON
  • @21hazza
    This song is magical because is has the ability to heal. Sometimes you have to be strong and leave them behind.

    Eu trabalhava no aeroporto de Salvador quando eles vieram ao Brasil desta vez. Fui recebê-los na pista, e foi uma grande emoção apertar as mãos de cada um deles. São lembranças "que você não pode deixar para trás!"
  • @JD-dk6hd
    What a song, especially in the times we are living in. Walk On everyone, keep strong, good times will come be back again soon
  • After 30 years as a fan, I remain OBSESSED with them! The poetry of Bono's/U2's lyrics & vocals.... so intentional and they take every release very seriously!!! God, they will always be my favorite!!!
  • @user-rr6lp1ql9o

  • @AdamDylanFoley
    Man this reduced me to tears, it eases heartbreak and gives us hope and strength to continues forwards, don't give up, don't give in, you'll reach the light that's deep within.
  • @marialuoma786
    This song is a lifesaver. I have listened to it in moments of real desperation..
  • @thomasr5302
    “You’re packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been, a place that has to be believed to be seen” One day we’re all going to walk on, and when that happens, what we’ve got in this world, money, fame, possessions, power, isn’t going to matter - what matters is hope, faith, and love. May God bless you U2, and I am looking forward to an eternity with you!

    Ser DO Rio de Janeiro Brasil, e ter este vídeo oficial da minha banda preferida U2 gravado aqui para a eternidade. Walk on é simplesmente uma das mais lindas canções!!!

    I first listened to this song when I bought the U2 album All that You Cant Leave Behind back in 2002 while traveling through New Zealand and Australia. This was the song in the album that hit me the most, and each time I listen to it brings back amazing memories. U2 was and is still my favourite band to this day.
