Lyrics:
I can feel the soft silk of your blouse
And them soft thrills in our little fun house
Then the lights go out and it's just the three of us
You, me and all that stuff we're so scared of
Gotta ride down baby
Into this tunnel of love

This is my favorite song Bruce ever wrote. It came out just after I got married and moved out of my parents home. It brings back the good memories I had in that part of my life. I got married the day after Edmonton was destroyed by a mile wide tornado. I'm here in 2024!

[@ClarkForester]

truly a great song, filmed at Asbury park.. Every tine my wife sees it she goes down memory lane. She is the sward sallower in this video. The tattooed gentleman was Mikle Wilson better known as tattoo Mike, the illustrated man. When she was asked to do the video, she had no idea it was Bruce Springsteen, she was told it was a local band. Her stage name at the Coney Island side show was Lady Diane.

[@DebNKY]

That's terrific!

[@timothyhunter4724]

I was there, and I remember your wife , lovely woman. She and the snake charmer lady were very cool. That was a fun night for the art department- no work, just hanging out.

[@paulmartin1279]

Is she still at Coney ever? I'm a Coney Island Polar Bear and would love to say hi

[@kbermann]

I recognize her! Tattoo Mike was a dear friend of mine and I visited him at Coney Island and met his crew at the side show. Michael told me that during a pause in the filming of this video he was reading Flannery O'Connor and Bruce came over and they talked about how much they liked her writing. I miss Michael and I love Bruce.

My favorite song from my favorite Springsteen album. The real brilliance of the album is that the order of the songs trace a relationship from the beginning all the way to the end...and every step in between in chronological order. It amazes me that this album and this song have largely been forgotten or minimized in the pantheon of his discography. I can't think of any album that hits emotionally as hard and right to the bone as this one. Pure genius.

Even when this song came out it wasn't given the appreciation or accolades regarding the lyrics or music.

' pun for all ' - brilliant

[@williamwalker5326]

One of the truly great Springsteen songs. I live in the area and have seen Bruce walking the Asbury boardwalk just as he does in the video. After all, Asbury is where everything started for him, and he has never forgotten where those roots began. Springsteen, like Asbury Park are both iconic and although both have changed, they live on.

[@paulchisholm3305]

I hear it now and it takes me right back to 1987 and being 18yrs old. That feeling of being young with hopes and dreams and a youthful naivety laced with confidence. Great song then & still is now. Lyrical genius. Arguably Bruce's best album, definitely his most personal after his own marriage breakdown! If only it was 1987 again! 🤷‍♂️

[@sarge9733]

Awesome tunes... It's definitely something to do with that recurring synth bass sound that is in all the 'Boss's songs you mentioned. All in a very simple key, and easy chords to play on an acoustic guitar. But they sound like nothing without that mysterious, ominous, but almost 'warm' haunting bass production sound. I love it every time I hear it.

[@whitneygibson3431]

I was a teenager in 1987, age 16 & hadn't learned to appreciate Bruce Springsteen. As an adult, having relationships & experiencing all the things we cultivate, collect, treasure & regret along the way, I slowly realized his music was great, even amazing. I finally understood all the hysteria he induces.Of all his songs, this one, in particular, hauntingly resonates, w/profoundly honest & simple lyrics, the line "It ought to be easy, ought to be simple enough, man meets woman & falls in love, but this house is haunted & the ride gets rough. You've got to learn to live with what you can't rise above." To me, that's one of the most soul-stirring lyrics I've ever encountered. Now, looking back on a first marriage, at 19, it unraveled in hateful hostility. My second marriage, was a fun & exciting ride, the complete opposite of first, sadly ending w/his sudden death at age 45. Just as much my friend as a lover & a spouse. A painful season of grief followed. Between marriages, I was engaged to the love of my life. He sank ever deeper into alcoholism & unspoken despair, raging battle inside him. So intense, he couldn't find words to even express it was happening. He got sicker & sicker, as I drifted away, when he wasn't pushing me away. We let go of the grip of our hands & hearts. I got up, walked away, but it was extremely messy, taking a yr to completely cut ties, both of us moved to different states, no contact info given.This song resonates w/me, the house is haunted w/ memories, ones that scar & remain & exorcises itself, the only way it can be done. The ride gets rough often, especially in young adulthood, but for valid reasons that you'll understand many years removed from those times. Eventually, if fortunate, you arrive at a place internally, easily learning to live w/what you can't rise above. The process of getting older does provide wisdom & an ability to have a level of perception unavailable to younger adults. It's a level of maturity referred to in this song & you either get it, or you don't.

[@tombyrne620]

Hope you have peace now

[@whitneygibson3431]

Thank you , Tom, for taking a moment of your time & replying to what I wrote, I appreciate your good wishes for me. I wrote that over 2 yrs ago & I have definitely cheered up & even (,dare I say it) had periods of sheer happiness. That's the part about happiness that makes us all strive for it like a drug,. All of us (for the most part,), have had the sweet, divine pleasure of experiencing the great state called happiness, and, like most of us, it's fleeting as other forces converge upon one's life to continually push us to the edge, forcing upon you not only life changing challenges, but mundane chores & tasks that unfortunately, we spend the bulk of our lives undertaking. I think the key 🔑 is to know when you find joy & savor it as long as acceptably possible. Joy, like pain, is random, but certain. Again, thank you for the kind words you took the time to express to me. If only we practiced more kindness not only to strangers, as we are so often reminded to do by the media we are engulfed by, but sometimes kindness goes the furthest when we give (freely, I might add!) to the very people we share our lives with, because one day, usually without warning, either you, or them will be gone. The memories left behind aren't all perfect, for we all know that word doesn't exist in reality, only in our fantasies & the stuff made in Hollywood. Memories are what we leave behind & if you did it right, they will be of the kind that provides comfort & humor & lessons to live by. My memories are rich & full of the knowledge that once upon a time I was loved by the most astounding & unique individual that I ever came across, of the type that caused me to experience an emotional state that I'd never felt before & had only heard of, but never experienced . It was the most unusual thing, to fall in "love at first sight", of which there are two types of this state.. One type is also one-sided, the other, is felt mutually between both parties involved. To my fantastic good fortune, it was a mutual occurrence. My future husband never felt this before either, preferable I think.

Out of school, career gaining traction, chasing skirts, partying, making lasting friendships, girlfriends coming and going....wow, what a great time to be alive and Bruce pretty much captured it all....the emotions, the feelings, the hope and fears...all of it, on this album.

Truth

[@cathylindaboom5887]

God what a song! Too many people on this thread saying "Not a Springsteen fan, but...." BUT nothing, I say!! This is truly a powerful amazing song by Bruce - as if his songwriting were maturing with his age and life experience. But damn, he was great! This album was a little heavier, darker, melancholy. But some of his earlier songs were pretty somber too. But it's all GREAT!!! The passion and exuberance of life as a younger man, the upbeat optimism. Love Bruce Springsteen!

[@needahandle]

Love him. Dont get the not a fan disclaimer either. Just say you like/ love the song. He has so many gems. I love Born to Run, Brilliant Disguise this song here so much as well as many others. He is a treasure of an artist

[@_Peremalfait]

The woman seen in shadow 3:26 was Springsteen’s first wife Julienne Phillips. Background vocals by his soon to be second wife Patti Scialfa. Tunnel of Love indeed.

[@Totalavulsion]

Straight away the opening lyrics of this song hits hard, painting the picture of doubt and mistrust that can creep into even the early stages of a relationship. This song is a masterpiece of speaking to commitment and accepting that true love is compromise and not without its difficulties. But maybe that’s what true love really is?

[@tempest_91]

haunting melody, still blows me away that someone could write something this good.

[@jesseburleson432]

Craig you couldn't be more right. This is some damn good songwriting.

[@lloydcole6090]

yes it is something haunting about this song but i like it

[@BRENDAJASON1]

craig cacek yes this haunting song as well as all the places we were at when this came out. I know were I was

[@psychickitty1]

craig cacek Totally agree. As amazing today as when I first heard in far away London in my grad school days...

[@oni741]

+craig cacek Exactly!

[@elizabethanderson7696]

My absolute fav Bruce song-brings chills and tears every time

[@ronnyparker]

me too

[@elizabethmcleod246]

It’s my favourite to.❤

[@mikerundberg8301]

this song is a masterpiece

[@jesseburleson432]

Springsteen's best song.

[@FD-yq4dc]

I just love this song.... Thank you God.

[@mayemcdonald9111]

I agree.....😌

[@Borat808]

Not being a springsteen fan this is IMHO one of the greatest songs of all time. Perfect length, perfect structure, perfect lyrics, baseline carries so much I just don't wanna stop listening, guitar solos send shivers down your spine, where would I stop?...

[@billmorton7720]

Awesome video and even better song. Of all Bruce Springsteen's songs, this one is my favorite. Came out in 1987, wow 31 years ago, I'm 65 now, the years go by for all of us way too fast.

[@dannynicastro3207]

Bill Morton ...52 yo now...used to crank this up on the big brothers sound system back in the day, worked 3 days, off 2...kept this on while cleaning, cooking and playing with my 2 yo. While bro was living elsewhere, left the stereo with the 3 foot high speakers at parents house. Bf n I married and bought our own house a year later. Celebrating our 30th anniversary in January...our adult son is a happy healthy young man of 34 in February. Havent spoken to bro in a couple of years. Shame for him...that its only us left in our family. The ball is in his court. But this brings memories of the simpler days...still with Mom n Dad. Have a happy n healthy new year and the best to you n yours. Stay close to your loved ones. God bless. BTW...Springsteen n band have ruled since their inception. He sings life, no other way to say it.

[@TheSmithefx]

This is my favorite song as far as the way the lyrics just seemed to flow together so seamlessly. Is truly poetry set to music. And when you learn how to it's a great song to sing along with LOL

[@Walmers27]

Nicely put and so true

[@kendavid891]

I'm 53,"what a drag it is getting old"the great stones song

[@kendavid891]

[@RealHaydenGuy]

Very underrated! Wish it was more popular

[@elizabethmcleod246]

I adored this album. ❤

[@sarge9733]

I personally enjoy loving songs that most people don't even know!

[@rebeccamcpeak5376]

I’ve probably listened to this a thousand times and my heart aches every time.

[@jasonporter2489]

I think I'm in love with you.

[@paulmcdonough1093]

great song seaside fairgrounds have a special place for me

[@mamumaumau7205]

Yes R.M. That combination of beauty and sorrow is something that we usually never forget.... Plus the background singer Patty S. provides the secret ingredient that pulls it all together..... It is brilliant.....

[@alycereasland1696]

I feel the same thing. I can't help but play it over and over again. Makes me cry but I've made it through to the other side so it is just bittersweet now.

[@elizabethanderson7696]

Just brought me to tears again. It's a brilliant archetypal ballad which touches all who've been in love.

[@jeffreyfunwithharm3137]

What can I say ,they don't call him the boss for nothing.

[@djfreddycee]

Who’s here because 2021 is no different than 2020 but listening to this amazing track by The Boss makes everything better? 🙋🏻‍♂️

Perfect damn question. XO

Would you rather?

[@TarotMage]

While I don't consider myself a big Bruce Springsteen fan, this song has haunted me from the very first time I saw the video almost 30 years ago. The video's final scenes of Mr. Springsteen's solitary walk past a dilapidated carousel undergoing repairs in a closed-for-the-season Asbury Park -- under cold, graying skies, no less -- has always left me with a deep feeling of loneliness and solitude. I've listened to many songs in my life -- this one I felt.

[@MrTierra68]

couldn't agree more

[@STUKASHOCK]

Thank you for sharing, Tarot This song had always left me feeling 'what was to be, but never fulfilled.' It escapes me.

[@danbev9313]

Wow, that was a haunting statement of the human condition. Very well articulated. Short and succint, yet thought provokingly deep. Cheers

[@humpy151065]

cheer up mate

[@TarotMage]

No worries - won't be stocking up on the sleeping pills anytime soon. :D

[@coyacampbell5361]

This is one of the best relationships songs ever!!! He pretty much sums it up.. "got to learn to live with what you can't rise above" One of my most favorite lyrics!

[@philrich6327]

One of his few great songs after born in the USA album. It rivals his earlier work.

[@livinginOrwells1984]

"Tunnel of love"...massive understatement, especially in this messed right up world nowadays...

[@DanTonysBreezanna0719]

Hang in there. Always have hope. 😊

[@carlossanchez7111]

one of his best songs

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

So Agree. Takes me back to my Beach Trips with Steph-this was our song, Carlos! -----We would sit up in the dunes, play Springsteen. she would throw pickles at me!

[@patriciascully5369]

Grettings is the Best...Followed by this

[@elizabethmcleod246]

Patricia Scully I like Secret Garden to.

[@rickb.6692]

1 of his best albums sir!!!

[@garyjohnson7628]

Easily his best I would say.

[@paulgrogan8032]

I wasnt a huge Springsteen fan but I remember thinking this man is crazy to break up the E street band. One cold snowy night in Boston I was on a bar stool staring into nothingness and this song came on the juke box and I was so moved I consider this record amongst the best 20 records ever made❤👏🏆

[@dalelerette206]

Sometimes music remembers for you.

[@davidheath3788]

[@PhillipChorba-go9zm]

I busted my cherry with my girlfriend 😮to this song

[@kowalski5599]

Our first date was at the museum of Science & Tech in Ottawa, Canada. Along with all the other fun things, they had some crazy mirrors there, I took two pictures of us infront of the mirrors. It was a beautiful, fun and revelatory relationship, but I was just too young and immature to be handed someone that great so early. This song encapsulates that experience so well. I miss her more than anyone or anything else in my life, even all these years later. "House gets haunted, and the ride gets rough, Got to learn to live with what you can't rise above." Amen, Bruce. You nailed it as always. Miss you C.

[@mikekirner]

He pulled out all the stops on this one. Musical perfection. Lyrics, vocals, melody are supreme. The haunting organ/piano ard stunning. Arguably, besides Born to Run - his best ever. Just love everything about it.

[@heavnnnsent]

I've heard Born to run too many times so not really a big fan of that....honestly this one is incredible

[@labgrunt1961]

"When the lights go out and it's just the three of us, yeah...you & me & all that stuff we're so scared of..." Bruce RULES!!!!

[@BB-ub7iz]

I’m a NJ native, after reading his biography Born To Run and visiting Asbury Park I instantly connected with his life and feelings, what an amazing life and artist! Thank you Bruce!

[@bentaylor5481]

Such 80s vibe. So dark. So perfect. Such a good guitar solo. Such a feel.

[@realmichaud]

One of the best songs of the 1980s brings back many memories and feelings.....so good.

[@MidnightMike71]

2022 and still rockin’ this song. I was never a big Springsteen fan, but this is my favorite song ever. The end of the video is cool with him walking and the sun coming up in the background while it is still dark around him.

[@Walmers27]

Same. Wonderfully nostalgic. Why did we worry so much back in the day? It will all take care of itself.

[@lightblueeyedgirl1442]

Since he is walking on a beach in NJ, it is the sun setting. The sun comes up over the ocean there, sets on the bayside. Just sayin'....I grew up there.

[@paulasusan63]

Great video!!!!

[@heavnnnsent]

But you must love brilliant disguise and also the song thunder road .....come on now!

[@malcomlovejoy]

Mike, yeah that part really is bad ass its like he's on a mission zippin up the ol leather goin out to meet it head on

[@pedropecci8687]

Those words “This is not a dark ride” are thrilled me over the years, when I saw the video back in 1987 I was 15, and i will never forgett those words...even today I feel something magic, dark, seeing the vídeo

[@ecardullo10]

It's a brilliant image in the video and sums up what the whole song is about. Love isn't a fairytale; it's dark and scary as Hell.
