bruce springsteen - cover me

Cover Me is a single from Bruce Springsteen's 1984 album Born in the U.S.A. The track combines Springsteen's signature heartland rock style with elements of synth-pop, making it one of his more radio-friendly songs. Lyrically, it explores themes of longing, vulnerability, and the desire for emotional protection, framed within Springsteen’s working-class ethos.

The song became a top 10 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and remains one of Springsteen's iconic tracks from the Born in the U.S.A. era. With its catchy chorus and introspective lyrics, Cover Me captures the tension between desire for solace and the tough realities of life.
