You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of
the murder committed
In the name of love
You thought what a pity
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams are washed away
There was a time when I did not care
And there was a time when the facts did stand
There is a dream and it's held by me
Well I'm sure you had to see
That it's up in arms
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams have washed away
You might know of the original sin
And you might know how to play with fire
But did you know of the murder committed
In the name of love
You thought what a pity
Dream on white boy
Dream on black girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams are washed away
Dream on black boy
Dream on white girl
Then wake up to a brand new day
To find your dreams are washed away
(Dream on) Play with fire
White boy, black girl
(Dream on) The name of love
Black boy, white girl
(Dream on) White boy, black girl
Black boy, white girl
In the name of love, yeah
You thought what a pity
Yeah....
Original sin...
Bono is an INXS fan. Bono wrote his great song "Pride" about MLK. Bono took the germ of his song, the song that (along with Sunday Bloody Sunday to an extent) really broke them in the U.S., from Hutchence's line "In the name of love" from this very song.
