Elvis Costello - Radio Sweetheart lyrics

My head is spinning and my legs are weak

Goose step dancing, can't hear myself speak

Hope in the eyes of the ugly girls

That settle for the lies of the last chancers

When slow motion drunks pick wallflower dancers

You come here looking for the ride to glory

Go back home with a hard luck story

I can hardly wait around until the weekend comes to town

Play one more for my radio sweetheart

Hide your love, hide your love

Though we are so far apart

You've got to hide your love

'Cause that's the way the whole thing started

I wish we had never parted

When it's late and the night gets colder

Don't lay your head on any other shoulder

Some hire themselves out for a good time

But you and I, we have been sold

So I keep on saying...

Play one more for my radio sweetheart

Hide your love, hide your love

Though we are so far apart

You've got to hide your love

'Cause that's the way the whole thing started

I wish we had never parted

Play one more for my radio sweetheart
