Cover art for Song for Someone lyrics by U2

On the IE tour, Bono introduced this song by talking about when he first met Ali Stewart, who is now Ali Hewson, his wife. He met her in his teens and was blown away by her. He then set to write the perfect song for her. He recalls her saying that she didn't need perfection, and told the audience "that's when I knew I had a chance." I just think this is such a sweet story.
