The Tunnel of Love Lyrics

consequences altered cases
broken noses altered faces
my ego altered altered egos
wherever i go so does me go
walk through the fields where the flowers are growing
carve out your names on the first tree you see
there are 22 catches when you strike your matches
and get down on your knees

in the tunnel of love - the tunnel of love
you fall in feet first - in the tunnel of love
you think of yourselves as really good friends
but you know how it always ends
in the tunnel of love

so you get engaged and have a party
only 17 when the wedding bells chime
Got a room with a view and a kid on the way
hope you make it to the church on time
cause the wedding list is getting longer
the bottom drawer is getting fuller
and you're not getting any younger
can things get any better

in the tunnel of love - the tunnel of love
you fall in feet first - in the tunnel of love
and think of yourselves as really good friends
but you know how it always ends
in the tunnel of love, the tunnel of love

so consequences altered cases
you tried honeymoons in far off places
but the trial separation worked and
ended up in a botter divorce case
you gave up your friends for a new way of life
and both ended up as ex husband and wife
there were 22 catches when you struck your matches
and threw away your life in the tunnel of love
the tunnel of love you fell in feet first
in the tunnel of love and thought of yourselves as really good friends
but you know how it had to end in the tunnel of love
the tunnel of love, the tunnel of love
the tunnel of love, the tunnel of love
the tunnel of love, in the tunnel of love

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Actually, I think the lyrics are:

Consequences, altered cases Broken noses, altered faces My ego altered, altered egos Wherever I go, so does me go

Walk through the fields where the flowers are growing Carve out your names on the first tree you see There are 22 catches when you strike your matches And get down on your knees

In the tunnel of love (The tunnel of love) You fall in feet first (In the tunnel of love) You think of yourselves as really good friends But you know how it always ends in the tunnel of love

So you get engaged and have a party Only 17 when the wedding bells changer A room with a view and a kid on the way Hope you make it to the church on time

Cause the wedding list is getting longer The bottom drawer is getting fuller And you're not getting any younger Can things get any better?

In the tunnel of love (The tunnel of love) You fall in feet first (In the tunnel of love) You think of yourselves as really good friends But you know how it always ends in the tunnel of love The tunnel of love

So consequences, altered cases You tried honeymoons in far away places But the trial separation worked And ended up in a divorce case

You gave up your friends for a new way of life And both ended up as ex husband and wife There were 22 catches when you struck your matches And threw away your life in the tunnel of love

In the tunnel of love (The tunnel of love) You fell in feet first (In the tunnel of love) And thought of yourselves as really good friends But you know how it had to end in the tunnel of love

(In the tunnel of love) The tunnel of love (The tunnel of love) The tunnel of love (The tunnel of love) In the tunnel of love
