Bruce Springsteen - Dancing in the Dark
---------------------------------------
I get up in the evening
and I ain't got nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feeling the same way
I ain't nothing but tired
Man I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey there baby, I could use just a little help

You can't start a fire
You can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
even if we're just dancing in the dark

Message keeps getting clearer
radio's on and I'm moving 'round the place
I check my look in the mirror
I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man I ain't getting nowhere
I'm just living in a dump like this
There's something happening somewhere
baby I just know that there is

You can't start a fire
you can't start a fire without a spark
This gun's for hire
even if we're just dancing in the dark

You sit around getting older
there's a joke here somewhere and it's on me
I'll shake this world off my shoulders
come on baby this laugh's on me

Stay on the streets of this town
and they'll be carving you up alright
They say you gotta stay hungry
hey baby I'm just about starving tonight
I'm dying for some action
I'm sick of sitting 'round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
come on now baby gimme just one look

You can't start a fire sitting 'round crying over a broken heart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
You can't start a fire worrying about your little world falling apart
This gun's for hire
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Even if we're just dancing in the dark
Hey baby

  • Wow. I never was really too big a fan of this song, I never could understand how it possibly is his highest charting song to date (#2) but I guess that was just because I didnt understand where Bruce was coming from until now. The lyrics to this song are some of Bruce's best and they are ringing so true at the moment..

  • Hello Youtube! I'm sure you get this a lot, but I'm a 16 year old male singer-songwriter with a mission. I want to be a professional singer and only you can help me achieve that goal. I have written two songs that you may be interested in "Sup" and "Puzzlebox". Please could you take the time to listen, comment and rate. It doesn't matter whether you love it or hate it, I just need some advice. If you're into acepellas and ballads then this is for you! Thank you!

    THUMBS UP so all can see!!!
