Bruce Springsteen - The Fuse lyrics

Down at the court house they're ringin' the flag down

Long black line of cars snakin' slow through town

Red sheets snappin' on the line

With this ring will you be mine

The fuse is burning

Shut out the lights

The fuse is burning

Come on let me do you right

Trees on fire with first fall's frost

Long black line front of Holy Cross

Blood moon risin' in a sky of black dust

Tell me Baby who do you trust?

The fuse is burning

Shut out the lights

The fuse is burning

Come on let me do you right

Tires on the highway hissin' something's come

feel the wires and the tree tops hummin'

Devil's on the horizon line

Your kiss and I'm alive

Quiet afternoon an empty house

On the edge of bed you slip off your blouse

The room is burning with the noon sun

Your bittersweet taste on my tongue

The fuse is burning

Shut out the lights

The fuse is burning
