Bruce Springsteen - Loose Ends lyrics

We met out on open streets when
We had no place to go
I remember how my heart beat when
You said "I love you so"
Then little by little
We choked out all the life
That our love could hold

No no, was like we had a noose and, baby
Without check we pulled till it grew
Tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin'
To say when well baby
You can meet me tonight on the loose end

We didn't count tomorrows, we took
What we could and baby, we ran
There was no time for sorrow
Every place we went I held your hand
And when the night closed in
I was sure your kisses told me
All I had to know

But no, was like we had a noose and, baby
Without check we pulled till it grew
Tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin'
To say when well baby
You can meet me tonight on the loose end

Our love has fallen around us like
We said it never could
We saw it happen to all
The others, but to us, it never would
Well how could something so bad, darling
Come from something that was so good
I don't know

It was like we had a noose and, baby
Without check we pulled till it grew
Tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin'
To say when well baby
You can meet me tonight on the loose end

On the loose end on the loose end
On the loose end on the loose end
On the loose end on the loose end
On the loose end
