[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
No no, was like we had a noose and, baby, without check
We pulled till it grew tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin', to say when
Well baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
But no, was like we had a noose and, baby, without check
We pulled till it grew tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin', to say when
Well baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

[Verse 3]
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 could something so bad, darling, come from something that was so good
I don't know

[Chorus]
It was like we had a noose and, baby, without check
We pulled till it grew tighter around our necks
Each one waiting for the other, darlin', to say when
Well baby, you can meet me tonight on the loose end

[Outro]
On the loose end
On the loose end
On the loose end
On the loose end
On the loose end
On the loose end
On the loose end

Bruce Springsteen

Bruce Springsteen is a rock ‘n’ roll icon from the great state of New Jersey. Nicknamed “The Boss,” he’s known for spirited sax-powered anthems about working-class people making their way in the world. Backed by the trusty E Street Band, he’s sold more than 120 million records, won numerous awards (including 20 Grammys and an Oscar), sold out stadiums around the globe, and earned a place alongside his teenage heroes in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Although he’s a living legend who ranks among the most important artists in rock history, Springsteen wasn’t an overnight success. Around the time of his first album, 1973’s Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J., he was dismissed as just another “new Dylan"—some scruffy folk singer with a decent vocabulary looking to follow in Bob’s footsteps. In the decade that followed, Springsteen proved himself to be much more.

His breakthrough came with his third album, 1975’s Born to Run. The record hit No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and landed the singer-songwriter on the cover of both Time and Newsweek. Bruce nabbed his first chart-topping album five years later with The River, and in 1984, he went global with Born in the U.S.A., a critical and commercial smash that produced seven Top 10 singles.
