Love On The Air
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.
Love on the air I keep transmitting but reception is hazy
I don't get an answer keep sending it faster Always knew it was crazy
To put my love on the air.
No one will hurt me again
No one will cause me to lie
No one control me by pain
No one can cause me to cry
I was looking for love
In wandering eyes
Like a ship trying to fix on a beacon
I learned how to sigh
On the ribbon and wires
It's a habit that's so hard to weaken
No one will ever manipulate
Make me promise to do or die
No one can make me hesitate
What can I lose if they try
I was looking for love
In wandering eyes
Like a ship trying to fix on a beacon
Contradicted - conspired
I connived and designed
Nothing on earth could arrest me.
(Reception is hazy)
When you put your love on the air
(Always knew it was crazy)
To put my love on the air
(But I only communicate)
When I put my love on the air
(You don't have to consummate)
Love on the air
But no one will ever manipulate
Make me promise to do or die
No one can make me hesitate
What can I lose if they try
I was looking for love
Like the very first time
Didn't realize love never left me
Contradicted - conspired
I connived and designed
Nothing on earth could arrest me.
I put my love on the air............
