RADAR LOVE

Radar Love

by Golden Earring

It's a song from a Dutch rock band, it's my ultimate travel song, my ultimate driving song and was once the wake up call for the crew members aboard the Space Shuttle Atlantic.

I've been drivin' all night, my hand's wet on the wheel 

There's a voice in my head that drives my heel 

It's my baby callin', says I need you here 

And it's half past four and I'm shifting gear  

When she's lonely and the longing gets too much 

She sends a cable comin' in from above 

We don't need no phone at all 

We've got a thing that's called radar love 

We've got a wave in the air, radar love  

The radio's playing some forgotten song Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong" 

The road's got me hypnotized 

And I'm speeding into a new sunrise  

When I get lonely, and I'm sure I've had enough 

She sends her comfort, comin' in from above

 Don't need no radio at all 

We've got a thing that's called radar love 

We’ve got a line in the sky, radar love  

No more speed, I'm almost there 

Gotta keep cool now, gotta take care 

Last car to pass, here I go 

And the line of cars drove down real slow 

And the radio played that forgotten song Brenda Lee's "Coming on Strong" 

And the newsman sang his same song 

One more radar lover's gone  

When I'm feeling lonely and I'm sure I've had enough 

She sends the comfort coming in from above 

Don't need no radio at all 

We got a thing that's called radar love 

We got a line in the sky 

We got a thing that's called radar love 

We got a thing that's called radar love
