The Promised Land (Live At Continental Airlines Arena, E. Rutherford, Nj - 7/15/1999)
Bruce Springsteen
5:55One, two, three, four 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 Oh, no It's like we held a noose, and baby without check We pulled 'til it grew tight around our necks Each one waiting for the other, darling to say when Baby, won't you meet me tonight on the loose end? We didn't count tomorrows, we took what we could, 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 we, we had to know, we had to know We'd all know It's like we held a noose and baby without check We pulled 'til it grew tighter 'round our necks Each one waiting for the other, darling to say when Baby, won't you meet me tonight on the loose end? Well, our love has fallen 'round us like we said it never would 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 It's like we held a noose and baby without check We pulled 'til it grew tight around our necks Each one waiting for the other, darling to say when Well, baby, won't you meet me tonight 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
