Radio Girl

I turned the radio on
Twenty-five years ago
And they were playing your song
I looked for you on the town
Thought I was tracking you down
You were there all along

You used to glow as bright as a candle
And now I'm burning the house down
You used to be all the world could handle
But now, radio girl, radio girl

When the radio waves have all drowned out
And you're drifting too far from the shore
When there's nobody else to cling to anymore
I turn the radio on

I turned the radio on
On a long highway
And they were playing your song
Out and under the stars
And the signal was clear
You were nowhere else but the radio
Traveling on

You used to glow as bright as a candle
But now I'm burning the house down
You used to be all the world could handle
But now, radio girl, radio girl

They played it over and over again
Like they did on the red hot and blue
When there's nobody else to sing to
Just me and you
I turn the radio on

I turned the radio on
Twenty-five years ago
