Last night I stood at your doorstep
Trying to figure out what went wrong
You just slipped somethin’ into my palm
Then you were gone
I could smell the same deep green of summer
Above me the same night sky was glowin’
In the distance I could see the town where I was born
It’s gonna be a long walk home
Hey pretty Darling, don’t wait up for me
Gonna be a long walk home
A long walk home

Sandy the fireworks are hailin’ over Little Eden tonight
Forcin’ a light into all those stoned-out faces left stranded on this Fourth of July
Down in town the circuit’s full with switchblade lovers so fast so shiny so sharp
And the wizards play down on Pinball Way on the boardwalk way past dark
And the boys from the casino dance with their shirts open like Latin lovers along the shore
Chasin’ all them silly New York girls
Sandy the aurora is risin’ behind us
The pier lights our carnival life forever
Love me tonight for I may never see you again
Hey Sandy girl
Born To Philosophize? Great article about Bruce’s alleged interest in philosophers’ lives, as he was seen reading “Examined Lives” by James Miller. If you are curious, this is the book.
Great version of American Land played in Perth on February 8th during the Australian leg of High Hopes Tour.
American Land Lyrics
What is this land America so many travel there
I’m going now while I’m still young my darling meet me there
Wish me luck my lovely I’ll send for you when I can
And we’ll make our home in the American land
Over there all the woman wear silk and satin to their knees
And children dear, the sweets, I hear, are growing on the trees
Gold comes rushing out the rivers straight into your hands
When you make your home in the American Land
There’s diamonds in the sidewalk the’s gutters lined in song
Dear I hear that beer flows through the faucets all night long
There’s treasure for the taking, for any hard working man
Who will make his home in the American Land
I docked at Ellis Island in a city of light and spires
She met me in the valley of red-hot steel and fire
We made the steel that built the cities with our sweat and two hands
And we made our home in the American Land
Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band played Murder Inc during the Australian leg of the High Hopes Tour.
Murder Inc. Lyrics
Bobby’s got a gun that he keeps beneath his pillow (oh yeah)
Out on the street your chances are zero (oh yeah)
Take a look around you (come on down)
It ain’t too complicated
You’re messin’ with Murder Incorporated
Now you check over your shoulder everywhere that you go (oh yeah)
Walkin’ down the street, there’s eyes in every shadow (oh yeah)
You better take a look around you (come on down)
That equipment you got’s so outdated
You can’t compete with Murder Incorporated
Everywhere you look now there’s Murder Incorporated Continue reading →
Bruce Springsteen and the E-Street Band played Hearts Of Stones in Uncasville on May 17th 2014.
Hearts Of Stones Lyrics
You stare in the mirror at the lines in your face
And you try to see, girl
The way things were when we were at your place
In the days it was just you and me, girl
And you cry because things ain’t like before
Well don’t you know they can’t be that way anymore
But don’t worry baby
CHORUS
I can’t talk now, I’m not alone
So put your ear close to the phone
‘Cause this is the last dance
This is the last chance for hearts of stone
If there was something, baby, that I could do
Something that would last, honey, I would
But we all know, girl, especially you do
How you can’t return to your past, no
So girl close your eyes and I’ll be there
Hold me once more and we can go anywhere
Ah, we could
CHORUS
And you cry because things ain’t like before
Well don’t you know they can’t be like that anymore
Well I know it, baby
Hey Blue Eyes is a new Springsteen’s song included in American Beauty published on April 2014.
Hey Blue Eyes Lyrics
They’re holding the committee
Of treason and lies
Double speak and sedition
Then somebody dies
From the hills the smell of lilacs
Then the repeat of guns
She closes the window and draws the blinds
Her first touch sucks the air from my lungs
Hey blue eyes
Whatcha doing tonight
Hey blue eyes
Yeah, it’s alright
She says in this house we’ve abandoned history
In this house there are no laws
Just the false taste of paradise Continue reading →
