Dancing In The Dark

Lyricist: Bruce Springsteen     Composer: Bruce Springsteen



I get up in the evening
And I hang up nothing to say
I come home in the morning
I go to bed feel then the same way
I am nothing but tired
Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself
Hey 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
Messages keeps getting clearer
Radio's on and I'm moving round my place
I check my look in the mirror
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face
Man, I am 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’re sitting hunger 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 laughs 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 sick of sitting round here trying to write this book
I need a love reaction
Come on now, baby, give me 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
