Stranded Lyrics - Bono

Yeah, yeah, yeah 

The sky falls and the earth quakes 

We gonna put this back together 

We won't break 

The sky falls and the earth quakes 

We gonna put this back together 

We won't break 

A port of princes, a Haitian goddess 

And all of my princesses, our condolences 

As we fight against this, we're right by your side 

While we trying to make sense of this 

Heavenly father, help us see through these problems 

And put those that left, accept them into your garden 

So, here's my theory, the country's already starving 

So we sacrifice many to shed light on all of them 

Y'all please, I speak from my heart 

The only way I can see this tragedy befalling 

So let's get involved with it, hand to hand, arm to arm with it 

To make it strong again when the sky falls 

Not tomorrow 

Can't wait until tomorrow 

Haiti, a mi mon amour, Haiti, mon amour 

Not gonna leave you stranded 

Oh no, oh no, oh no 

The sky falls and the earth quakes 

We gonna put this back together 

We won't break 

The sky falls and the earth quakes 

We gonna put this back together 

We won't break 

We learned from the past, New Orleans was flooded 

So we know we just can't rely on the government 

Under the rubble, here we going rumbling 

When we gonna catch a break, a friend lost his mother and then 

Colleen lost her uncle's again, buried with no caskets 

They just put covers on them 

A tense call, I'll be right back, still it can't end, no, not like that 

No, not like this 

The smallest survivors are gonna carry on your name 

The broadest silence, your memory's alive with us 

You inspired us to rebuild this country 

You just guide us when the sky falls 

Not tomorrow 

Can't wait until tomorrow 

Haiti, a mi mon amour, Haiti, mon amour 

Not gonna leave you stranded 

Hey, not gonna leave you stranded 

Oh no, oh no 

It's not the angels that are on their way 

The people waiting, positions vacant 

For hands to help, not just to pray 

Haiti, a mi mon amour, Haiti, mon amour 

Not gonna leave you stranded 

Hey, not gonna leave you stranded 

Not gonna leave you 

Not gonna leave you 

Not gonna leave you 

The sky falls, the earth quakes 

Tu vas te relever 

Ensemble, ensemble, ensemble 

Not gonna leave you stranded 

(The sky falls, the earth quakes) 

Not gonna leave you stranded 

(The sky falls, the earth quakes) 

Not gonna leave you, not gonna leave you 

(The sky falls, the earth quakes) 

The sky falls and the earth quakes 

We gonna put this back together 

We won't break
