Lyrics
Midnight Radio
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Rain falls hard, burns dry
A dream or a song
That hits you so hard
Filling you up and suddenly gone
Breathe, feel love, give free
Know in your soul
Like your blood knows the way
From your heart to your brain
Know that you're whole
And you're shining like the brightest star
A transmission from a midnight radio
And you're spinning like a 45
Ballerina, dancing to your rock and roll
Here's to patti and tina
And yoko, aretha and nona
And nico and me
And all the strange rock and rollers
You know you're doing alright
So hold on to each other
You gotta hold on tonight
And you're shining like the brightest stars
A transmission on a midnight radio
And you're spinning your new 45's
All the misfits and the losers
Well, you know you're rock and rollers
Spinning to your rock and roll
Lift up your hands, lift up your hands
Lift up your hands, lift up your hands
