Over the Rhine Album: Amateur Shortwave Radio Track: Like a Radio
Like a Radio Lyrics
Confused Ever since I spied you in the rooms of my mind Now I can't deny you
Bleeding and bruised Like a vagabond in rags I've walked the streets to you door To find just what's in store
I see you You and many others in your clean well-lighted place Where I would find disgrace
But I do Know I'd find contentment just to be your furniture I need nothing more
In the thick of the night take me out of the cold Let me sing inside Like a radio In the thick of the night before we grow too old Let me sing inside Like a radio
Shivering and cold this night's conducive to a Flight into my soul but I stand here Though my heart grows bold Once on the inside I can quietly persist And hold my tears
And so still I wait Though I grow much weaker I will not faint I'll stay true
Believe me when I say I'd climb to heaven Crawl beneath the lowest hell To stay near you
