No band, just me and I'm no performer
Story behind the song
I listened to a lot of radio as a kid in Chicago, usually alone, in my room, late at night. Not long ago, alone, on my couch, late at night, I started thinking about where I was and where I'd been. I'm a lot happier now than I was so I took a retrospective view and combined it with where my head was at back then.
Lyrics
LATE NIGHT RADIO
Ricki E. Bellos
Songs of late night radio
Have become the only friends I know
They are a light in the dark
Lately I have no desire
To see the sun or feel its fire
Loneliness has left its mark
Turn it up I remember this song
It doesn’t feel that long
Since I was young
Now my life is playing on late night radio
Late night radio
After midnight on the radio
Memories of lost years long ago
Are revealed for all to hear
Music we used to share
When we were so unaware
That an end could be so near
Turn it up I remember this song
Has it really been that long
Since I was young
Now my life is playing on late night radio
Late night radio
I look back on my misspent youth
When I had nothing to lose
Little did I know
All the friends and family now long gone
Floating by on air waves with each song
On late night radio
Late night radio
