Radio: Seeking Musical Salvation in the Night
Lyrics
Radio, radio
Addressing the radio as a means of communication or source of music.
Tell me what I wanna know, wanna know
Expressing a desire for information or a particular feeling.
I've been wide awake, staying up all night
Having been awake and alert throughout the night.
Waiting for a song that will make me feel alright.
Anticipating a song that will bring comfort or joy.
Break it up, break it down
Encouraging a change or interruption in the situation.
All this bad news keeps on hanging' around
Continual exposure to negative or distressing news.
Well, I'm stuck in a rut
Feeling stuck in a repetitive and unproductive cycle.
And I need that diamond in the rough
Seeking something exceptional or extraordinary.
So, radio, radio
Reiteration of the desire for information or a particular feeling from the radio.
Tell me what I wanna know, wanna know
Expressing a longing to know something specific.
I've been wide awake, staying up all night
Continuing to be awake and alert throughout the night.
Waiting for a song that will make me feel alright.
Desiring a song that will provide emotional solace.
So, radio, radio
Repetition of addressing the radio for guidance or satisfaction.
You can play it fast, you can play it slow
Indicating a willingness for different tempos or styles of music.
You're the only one who can understand
Attributing the radio as the sole entity capable of comprehension.
Come on, make me feel like dancing.
Requesting music that evokes a desire to dance.
And I'm caught in my heart
Feeling emotionally attached or entangled.
Where you're with me, everywhere I go
Sensing the presence of something significant everywhere.
And I know (I know), yes I know (Yes I know)
Confident in the reliability and supportiveness of the radio.
That I can count on you like a good friend.
Comparing the dependability of the radio to a good friend.
Radio, radio
Repeated plea to the radio for desired information or feeling.
Tell me what I wanna know, wanna know
Continued state of being awake and alert, seeking something from the radio.
I've been wide awake, staying up all night
Remaining awake throughout the night in anticipation of a specific song.
Waiting for a song that will make me feel alright.
Yearning for a song that will provide emotional relief.
So, radio, radio
Reiteration of seeking guidance or satisfaction from the radio.
You can play it fast, you can play it slow
Expressing openness to different musical paces or styles.
You're the only one who can understand
Acknowledging the radio as the sole entity capable of understanding.
Come on, make me feel like dancing.
Desiring music that incites a desire to dance.
Make me dance, make me cry
Requesting music that elicits various emotional responses.
Make me feel in love, feel like I'm alive
Asking for music that makes one feel alive and in love.
Make me blue, how we do
Desiring music that induces feelings of sadness.
Make me anything that you want to
Open to music that provokes any emotional response.
Radio, radio
