• U2 Lyrics - Pride (In The Name Of Love)• One man come in the name of love
One man come and go One come he to justify One man to overthrow
In the name of love What more in the name of love In the name of love What more in the name of love
One man caught on a barbed wire fence One man he resist One man washed on an empty beach. One man betrayed with a kiss
In the name of love What more in the name of love In the name of love What more in the name of love
(nobody like you...)
Early morning, April 4 Shot rings out in the Memphis sky Free at last, they took your life They could not take your pride
In the name of love What more in the name of love In the name of love What more in the name of love In the name of love What more in the name of love...

The Television War• January 1968- Every major city in South
Vietnam was attacked by NVA and VC in what was called the Tet Offensive.
