Текст песни Loose End (Studio Outtake - 1979) - Bruce Springsteen

We met out on open streets
When we had no place to go
I remember how my heart beat
When you said, "I love you so"
Then little by little
We choked out all the life
That our love could hold
No, no

It's like we held a noose
And baby, without check
We pulled it a little tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other
Darling, to say when
Now baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

We didn't count tomorrows
We took what we could and baby we ran
There was no time for sorrow
Every place we went, I held your hand
And when the night closed in
I was sure your kisses told me all I had to know
But oh no

It's like we held a noose
And baby without check
We pulled 'til it grew tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other
Darling, to say when
Oh baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

Our love has fallen around us
Like we said it never could
We saw it happen to all the others
But to us it never would
Well, how can something so bad, darling
Come from something that was so good?
I don't know

But it's like we held a noose
And baby without check
We pulled 'til it grew tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other
Darling, to say when
Oh baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
On a loose end
