Where the cars they scream and slam
But I'll always tell you where I am
Where promises are made
She said "You are the perfect stranger"
It's just a cakewalk twisting baby
I had a one arm bandit fever
I could have caught up with her easy enough
I got a keepsake and a kiss
I stood and watched her walk away
Neon burning up above
Like the Spanish city to me when we where kids
On the tunnel of love, oooh love
And when you're riding at your own risk
Just like me she was a victim of the night
"Hey mister give me two, give me two now"
She put her hand in my pocket
Come on and take a low ride with me girl
Come on and take a low ride with me girl
I put my hand upon the lever
Come on and take a low ride with me girl
Neon burning up above
Like the Spanish city to me when we where kids
And the carnival arcades
From steeplechase to palisades
Said let it rock and let it roll
On the tunnel of love, yeah love, love, love
And I'm just high on the world
Sing about the switchback
And a torture tattoo
And I'm just high on this world
She had a ticket for the races
And the big wheel keep on turning
From Cullercoats and Whitley Bay out to rockaway
'Cause any two can play
In any shooting gallery
Well it's been money for muscle on a another whirligig
And I been riding on a ghost train
And the big wheel keep on turning
And I'm just high on the world
Like the Spanish city to me when we where kids
There was an arrow through
But something must have made me stay
In a screaming ring of faces
Step right up and say
Another hustle just to, just to make it big
Girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
Neon burning up above
Girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
She said "Remember me by this"
My heart and my soul
Sing about the sixblade
And rockaway, you rockaway, oh rockaway, rockaway
It's just a danger, danger
Money for muscle and a another girl I dig
And the big wheel keep on turning
And I don't know where I'll be tonight
On the tunnel of love, yeah love
And now I'm searching through these carousels
Check it out
And girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
She said "Baby just keep it like this"
On the tunnel of love, ooh love, love
She took off a silver locket
And in the roar of dust and diesel
Searching everywhere
I seen her standing in the light
And girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did
To rockaway, rockaway, rockaway, rockaway
