Golden Earring

Songtekst

`ve been driving all night,
My hand`s wet on the wheel
There`s a voice in my head,
That drives my heel
It`s my baby callin`,
Says I need you here
And it`s half past four
And I`m shifting gear

When she`s lonely
And the longing gets too much
She sends a cable coming in from above
Don`t need no phone at all
We`ve got a thing that`s called:
Radar love
We`ve got a wave in the air
Radar love

The radio`s playing some forgotten song
Brenda Lee`s: "Coming on strong"
The road`s got me hypnotised
And I`m speeding into a new sunrise

When I get lonely,
And I`m sure I`ve had enough
She sends her comfort
Coming in from above
Don`t need no letters at all
We`ve got a thing that`s called: Radar love
We`ve got a line in the sky

No more speed I`m almost there
Gotta keep cool, now gotta take care
Last car to pass, here I go!
And the line of cars drove down real slow
And the radio played that forgotten song
Brenda Lee`s Coming on strong
And the newsman sang his same song
One more Radar love has gone
