Bruce Springsteen - Lonesome Day Lyrics






Once I thought I knew
Everything I needed to know about you
Your sweet whisper, Your tender touch
But I didn't really know that much
Joke's on me, It's gonna be okay
If I can just get through this lonesome day

Hell's brewin' dark sun's on the rise
This storm'll blow through by and by
House is on fire, Viper's in the grass
A little revenge and this too shall pass
This too shall pass, I'm gonna pray
Right now all I got's this lonesome day

It's allright? It's allright? It's allright

Better ask questions before you shoot
Deceit and betrayals bitter fruit
It's hard to swallow, come time to pay
That taste on your tongue don't easily slip away

Let kingdom come I'm gonna find my way
Through this lonesome day

  40. q.... l....

    Great tune !! Brother in law got me hooked on the boss over 20 years ago!!!

  41. D.... B....

    I love The Boss's music videos when it comes to using live vocal tracks. It's more grounded and immerses you in with him.

  42. E.... ....

    Im here on August ,9 2019

  43. R.... J....

    I got to see this guy on the rising tour at Dodger Stadium in La simply incredible

  44. O.... M....

    I WILL SWEAR THAT THIS IS ONE OF BRUCE'S BEST SONGS AND THE LAST GREAT SONG FROM HIM. PERFECT.

    O.... M....

    I am not a big Boss fan but the best songs of BRUCE are....
    tunnel of love
    atlantic city
    hungry heart
    glory days
    dancing in the dark
    rosalita
    the fever
    maybe "out in the street"
    and the last great song he did was ...... Lonesome Day

    and yes i think the cd "born to run" was overproduced and overwrought; most of bruce's songs work too hard to be anthems and are laced with pomposity. But sure he's a very talented songwriter.

    O.... M....

    Did you check out the Magic Album? It has a similar vibe to this song.

  45. L.... P....

    3.911 .... the numbers mason..total 5 is mercury gemini expired mind.

  46. G.... C....

    Fa caca'

  47. I.... A....

    1.... 2.... 3.... 4.... 👌🏻👌🏻

  48. n.... B....

    Oh my boss !

  49. C.... C....

    Great opening track of The Rising.

  50. b.... j....

    Got to see this guy twice he is amazing

  51. B.... C....

    I have loved this song since it was new, but somehow I never saw this video until now and it really gives the song a whole new meaning. From only listening, I always got the sense that he was making a confident declaration that "It's alright, it's alright," but the feeling conveyed through the expression on his face when he sings, "It's alright," it's more of a desperate plea for everything the be alright. Beautiful song. Goes deep.

  52. E.... M....

    Great, BOSS! Many thanks from Russia! Круто, по сердцу!

  53. M.... B....

    Wonderful Video 💕

  54. P.... S....

    A great you get knocked on your ass now get back up song. Because this to shall pass.

  55. P.... M....

    this makes me shiver his voice seems so real...

    P.... M....

    Because it is

  56. S.... S....

    Gospel + Rock + Singer Songwriter = 👍

  57. N.... C....

    The song and the video are absolutely beautiful

  58. D.... L....

    Best albums are Born, Darkness and USA
    Forget these pop songs.

    D.... L....

    The river as well as the rising after 911 my top 's are darkness btr greetings USA and devils and dust

  59. V.... B....

    The Boss 🎸🎤💎 Love 💘 Love 💘

  60. B.... ....

    Once I thought I knew
    Everything I needed to know about you
    Your sweet whisper, Your tender touch
    But I didn't really know that much
    Joke's on me, It's gonna be okay
    If I can just get through this lonesome day

    Hell's brewin' dark sun's on the rise
    This storm'll blow through by and by
    House is on fire, Viper's in the grass
    A little revenge and this too shall pass
    This too shall pass, I'm gonna pray
    Right now all I got's this lonesome day

    It's allright? It's allright? It's allright

    Better ask questions before you shoot
    Deceit and betrayals bitter fruit
    It's hard to swallow, come time to pay
    That taste on your tongue don't easily slip away

    Let kingdom come I'm gonna find my way
    Through this lonesome day

    B.... ....

    If only lyrics came this easily

    B.... ....

    "Lonesome Day"

    Once I thought I knew

    A little revenge and this too shall pass
    This too shall pass, I'm gonna pray
    Right now all I got's this lonesome day

    It's allright? It's allright? It's allright

    “Hell is brewing, dark sun’s on the rise, this storm will blow thru by ‘n by, House is on fire, vipers in the grass, A little revenge, and this too shall pass”
    One of the many 9/11 references on “The Rising” album.

  81. M.... ....

  82. J.... L....

    J.... L....

  83. B.... D....

    I've been loving this song for years and just now I looked at the music video! it's so beautiful!!!

  96. M.... M....

    Best song off The Rising. With good reason it's the number one track off the CD.
    Baby, once I thought I knew
    Everything I needed to know about you
    Your sweet whisper, your tender touch
    But I didn't really know that much
    Joke's on me, it's gonna be okay
    If I can just get through this lonesome day
    Lonesome day

  97. �.... �....

    hmm intrested why they chose this vocal take instead the original - far better sound and performance

    �.... �....

    The Boss hates lip-syncing and filming music videos for the most part, but they use live vocal tracks for songs that are pretty personal to him.

  98. a.... a....

    Esta buena canción de BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN la canto y la publico en el año 2002
