Lyrics

There's a place I go both near and far away
Like a T.V. show with everyone I've known
In my imagination
There is just static and flow
Hello, hello
There's a picture book with colour photographs
Where there is no shame, there is no laugh
Sometimes I find it thrilling
That I can't have what I don't know
Hello, hello
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
There's a place I go that isn't part of me
Like a radio with no controls
In my imagination
There's only static and flow
No yes or no
Just stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Stories for boys
Written by: Adam Clayton, Bono, Larry Mullen Jr., The Edge
