Lagu yang didedikasikan untuk peraih Nobel tahun 1991, Aung San Suu Kyi, ditulis oleh Bono dengan memposisikan dirinya sebagai suami dan anak dari Suu Kyi yang ditinggalkannya selama dalam penahanan.
Bono menyebutkan bahwa apa yang dilakuan Suu Kyi adalah tindakan paling berani dan menjadi inspirasi pada abad 20 dan akan terus berlanjut di abad 21.

Tapi, Bono seperti yang kita kenal…
akan selalu membiarkan lirik yang ditulisnya menjadi abstrak.
“Orang boleh saja beranggapan bahwa lagu ini merupakan ungkapan hati bagi mereka yang harus meninggalkan / mengakhiri sebuah hubungan demi sebuah tujuan yang mulai / demi kebaikan”

And love is not the easy thing
The only baggage you can bring…
And love is not the easy thing…
The only baggage you can bring
Is all that you can’t leave behind

And if the darkness is to keep us apart
And if the daylight feels like it’s a long way off
And if your glass heart should crack
And for a second you turn back
Oh no, be strong

Walk on, walk on
What you got, they can’t steal it
No they can’t even feel it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight…

You’re packing a suitcase for a place none of us has been
A place that has to be believed to be seen
You could have flown away
A singing bird in an open cage
Who will only fly, only fly for freedom

Walk on, walk on
What you got they can’t deny it
Can’t sell it or buy it
Walk on, walk on
Stay safe tonight

And I know it aches
And your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Home…hard to know what it is if you never had one
Home…I can’t say where it is but I know I’m going home
That’s where the heart is

I know it aches
How your heart it breaks
And you can only take so much
Walk on, walk on

Leave it behind
You’ve got to leave it behind
All that you fashion
All that you make
All that you build
All that you break
All that you measure
All that you steal
All this you can leave behind
All that you reason
All that you sense
All that you speak
All you dress up
All that you scheme…
