Bruce Springsteen This Life
OFF HIS LATEST ALBUM WORKING ON A DREAM (2009)
LYRICS:
A bang then stardust in your eyes
A billion years for just this night
In a way it will be alright
A blackness then the light of a million stars
As you slip into in my car
The evening sky strikes sparks
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
At night at my telescope alone
This emptiness I've roamed
Searching for a home
The stars, a brief string of shining charms
Rushing in right out of our arms
Into the drifting dark
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest
We reach for starlight all night long
But gravity is too strong
Chained to this earth we go on and on and on and on and on
Then a million suns cresting where you stood
A beauty in the neighborhood
This lonely planet never looked so good
This life, this life and then the next
With you I have been blessed
What more can you expect
This life, this life and then the next
I finger the hem of your dress
My universe at rest

Love this song, should have been at the concert here in KC in 2009, but he cancelled it at the last minute. Loving Bruce since I was a kid living in NJ. The Boss is the best.

@SanGuevara Awesome that this is one of the songs getting you into him. You'll find it's hard to get tired of Bruce because his music is so diverse.

@CalgarianMike I'm really glad that this song is being heard by non-Springsteen fans. Such a beautiful tale of cosmic love.
