"I Fall Down" video

 

Julie says 'John, I'm getting nowhere
I wrote this letter
Hope to get to some place soon
I want to get up when I wake up
But when I get up
I fall down'

Julie wake up
Julie tell the story
You wrote the letter
Said you were going to get there some day
Gonna walk in the sun
And the wind and the rain
Never walk back again

Now you fall down
You're falling down
You fall down

Julie say something
Julie say you're sorry
You're gonna get better
You better not leave me here anyway
I want to get up when you wake up
But when I get up I fall down

I'm falling down
I fall down
I broke myself

I fall down
I'm falling down
I fall down when you fall down
When I fall down is when you're falling down
When you fall down, I fall down

Composed by U2 / Bono

About "I Fall Down"

From the original U2 Album "October" (12 October 1981)

This song is about a girl bono knew named julie. she's the daughter of a wealthy lawyer in new york, who ended up moving to ireland and becoming involved in the same bible group u2 were in. she later became involved with pod, a roadie for u2 at the time, the "john" in the song.

This song is, in a nutshell, about punks, and a lot of the themes on boy: suburban claustrophobia, a way to get out the horrors involved in this, etc. [From www.muorji.se/U2MoL]
