Tunnel Of Love - Live At The BBC

Getting crazy on the waltzers

But it's the life that I choose

Hey, sing about the six blade, sing about the switchback

And a torture tattoo

And I've 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 turnin'

Neon burnin' 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

It's just a 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 cakewalk, 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 burnin' 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 a 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

Woh la!

Check it out

She took off her 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 burnin' up above

And I'm just high on this world

Come on and take a low ride with me, girl

On the tunnel of love

Yea love, love

On the tunnel of love

Woah love, love

Yeah, now I'm searchin' 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 Cullercoats to Whitley bay

And 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
