Song On the Radio

Lyrics

I was making my way through the wasteland
 The road into town passes through
 I was changing the radio stations
 With my mind on you
 Oh, your friends call you 'Lily Paloma'
 But that's not the way that you are
 It's too much of a gentle misnomer
 For a shooting star
 But you and me, baby
 I saw you there, straight away I knew
 There's really no hiding
 I tell you right now what we're gonna do
 We'll go collecting the days
 Putting the moments away
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 ♪
 I remember the first time I saw you
 Alone in the dark, with a drink
 With a candle flame burning before you
 And your thoughts closed in
 You were staring out into the distance
 Not seeming to hear what I said
 Why did you put up such resistance
 Like all the lights were red
 'Cause you and me, baby
 I saw you there, straight away I knew
 There's really no hiding
 I tell you right now what we're gonna do
 We'll go collecting the days
 Putting the moments away
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 ♪
 I don't know what it was that was painful
 But sometimes it's there in your face
 There are times when you just look disdainful
 Of the human race
 Ah, but then on the wings of emotion
 We circle each other in flight
 Till together we roll like the ocean
 In its bed at night
 'Cause you and me, baby
 I saw you there, straight away I knew
 There's really no hiding
 I tell you right now what we're gonna do
 We'll go collecting the days
 Putting the moments away
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 
 You're on my mind
 Like a song on the radio
 Oh, woah, song on the radio
 Oh, woah, song on the radio
