Bruce Springsteen — Dancing in the Dark Springsteen on Broadway

[Verse 1] I get up in the evenin' And I ain't got nothin' to say I come home in the mornin' I go to bed feelin' the same way I ain't nothin' but tired Man, I'm just tired and bored with myself Hey there baby, mmm, I could use just a little help [Chorus 1] You can't start a fire You can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark [Verse 2] Message keeps gettin' clearer Radio's on and I'm movin' round the place I check my look in the mirror I wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face Man, I ain't getting nowhere Just livin' in a dump like this There's somethin' happenin' somewhere Baby, I just know that there is [Chorus 1] You can't start a fire You can't start a fire without a spark This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark [Bridge] You sit around gettin' older There's a joke here somewhere When I figure it out I'll let you know All I know is that it's on me Shake this world off my shoulders Come on, baby, have a laugh on me [Verse 3] Stay on the streets of this town Oh, and they'll be carving you up, that's right They say you gotta stay hungry Well, I'm just about starvin' tonight I'm dying for some action I'm sick of sittin' around here trying to write this book I need a love reaction Come on now, baby, gimme just one look [Chorus 2] You can't start a fire Sittin' around crying over a broken heart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark You can't start a fire Worrying about your little world fallin' apart This gun's for hire Even if we're just dancing in the dark Oh! [Outro] Even if we're just dancing in the dark Hey, baby Na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
