Tunnel of Love

Getting crazy on the waltzers

But it's the life that I choose

Yeah, sing about the six blade, sing about the switchback

And a torture tattoo

And I been riding on a ghost train

Where the cars they scream and slam

And I don't know where I'll be tonight

But I'd always tell you where I am

In a screaming ring of faces

I seen her standing in the light

She had a ticket for the races

Yeah, just like me, she was a victim of the night

I put my hand upon the lever

Said, "Let it rock and let it roll"

I had the one arm bandit fever

There was an arrow through my heart and my soul

And the big wheel keep on turning

Neon burning up above

And I'm just high on the world

Come on and take a low ride with me, girl

On the tunnel of love, yeah, love, love

It's just the danger, danger

When you're riding at your own risk

She said, "You are the perfect stranger"

She said, "Baby, let's keep it like this"

It's just a cake walk

Twisting baby, yeah, step right up and say

"Hey mister, give me two, give me two now

'Cause any two can play"

And the big wheel keep on turning

Neon burning up above

And I'm just high on the world

Come on and take a low ride with me, girl

On the tunnel of love, oh, love, love

Well, it's been money for muscle on another whirligig

Money for muscle and another girl I dig

Another hustle just to, just to make it big

And rock away, rock away

Oh, rock away, rock away

And girl, it looks so pretty to me

Like it always did

Oh, like the Spanish city to me

When we were kids

Yeah, girl, it looks so pretty to me

Just like it always did

Oh, like the Spanish city to me

When we were kids

She took off a silver locket

She said, "Remember me by this"

She put her hand in my pocket

I got a keepsake and a kiss

And in the roar of dust and diesel

I stood and watched her walk away

I could have caught up with her easy enough

But something must have made me stay

And the big wheel keep on turning

Neon burning up above

And I'm just high on this world

Come and take a low ride with me, girl

On the tunnel of love, yeah, love, love, love

On the tunnel of love, oh, love, love

And now I'm searching through these carousels

And the carnival arcades

Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades

In any shooting gallery where promises are made

To rock away, rock away

Rock away, rock away

From culler-coats and Whitley Bay

Out to rock away

And girl, it looks so pretty to me

Like it always did

Like the Spanish city to me

When we were kids

Girl, it looks so pretty to me

Like it always did

Like the Spanish city to me

When we were kids
