Tunnel Of Love Lyrics - Sultans Of Swing - Dire Straits & Mark Knopfler

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 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 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 

It's just the 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 step right up and say 

Hey mister give me two give me two 'cause any two can play 

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 

Well it's been money for muscle another whirligig 

Money for muscle another girl I dig 

Another hustle just to make it big 

And rockaway rockaway 

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

Like the spanish city to me when we were kids 

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

Like the spanish city to me when we were kids 

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 

And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades 

Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades 

In any shooting gallery where promises are made 

To rockaway rockaway from Cullercoats and Whitley bay out to rockaway 

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
