Tunnel of love lyrics

Getting crazy on the waltzers

but it's the life that I choose

Sing about the sixblade 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

just like me she was a victim of the night

I put a 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

It's just the 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 step right up and say

Hey mister give me two give me two

cos 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

Well it's been money for muscle

another whirligig

Money for muscle

and another girl I dig

Another hustle

just to make it big

And rockaway rockaway

Rockaway rockaway

And girl it looks so pretty to me

just like it always did

Like the spanish city to me

when we were kids

Oh girl it looks so pretty to me

just like it always did

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 the 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 the world

Come on and take a low ride with me girl

On the tunnel of love

On the tunnel of 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 rockaway rockaway

Rockaway rockaway

from cullercoats and whitley bay

out to rockaway

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
