Radio Was King

You bought me a ring
When radio was king
Along with some tears it went missin through the years
Tossed out to sea
I threw it carelessly
Lost in the sands I let it slip right through my hands

But I heard angels sing
When radio was king
What a soulful thing
When radio was king

One wild summer night
Underneath the clear moon light
The blue devils wailed, somewhere high our spirits sailed
We danced in the heat
Made love to that reckless beat
Fires along the shore lit up like some meteor

Starlight on the water
Mother Nature's daughter
Waves out on the bay
Just carried us away

Now our dreams are scattered wide
We keep our love locked up inside

Times took it's toll
We spun out of control
How could that holy place disappear without a trace?
That bittersweet melody
Never really set us free
Like that ring of gold we can not come in from the cold

But I heard angels sing
When radio was king
What a soulful thing
When radio was king
