Tunnel Of Love Lyrics - Making Movies - Dire Straits

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 

Yea 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 a 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 

Yea love 

It's just a danger, when you're riding at your own risk 

She said, "You are the perfect stranger" 

She said, "Baby just 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 now 

'Cause any two can play" 

And the big wheel 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 

Oh love, love 

Well it's been money for muscle on a another whirligig 

Photos 

Money for muscle and another girl I dig 

Another hustle just to, just to make it big 

And rockaway, rockaway 

Oh rockaway, rockaway 

And girl it looks so pretty to me, like it always did 

Oh, like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids 

Oh, 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 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 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 

Yea love, love 

On the tunnel of love 

Wo love, love 

Yea I am searchin' through these carrousels 

And the carnival arcade, searching everywhere 

From steeplechase to ballastades 

In any shooting galleries where promises are made 

To rockaway, rockaway 

Oh rockaway, rockaway 

From color coats to whitney bay 

And to rockaway 

And girl it looks so pretty to me, like it always did 

Oh, like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids 

Oh, girl it looks so pretty to me, like it always did 

Oh like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids
