I was making my way through the wasteland 
The road into town passes through 
I was changing the radio stations 
With my mind on you 
Oh your friends call you "Lily Paloma" 
But that's not the way that you are 
It's too much of a gentle misnomer 
For a shooting star 

But you and me baby 
I saw you there 
Straight away I knew 
There's really no hiding 
I'll tell you right now 
What we're gonna do 
We'll go collecting the days 
Putting the moments away 
You're on my mind like a 
Song on the Radio 

I remember the first time I saw you 
Alone in the dark with a drink 
With a candle flame burning before you 
And your thoughts closed in 
You were staring out into the distance 
Not seeming to hear what I said 
Why did you put up such resistance 
Like all the lights are red' 

Cause you and me baby 
I saw you there 
Straight away I knew 
There's really no hiding 
I'll tell you right now 
What we're gonna do 
We'll go collecting the days 
Putting the moments away 
You're on my mind like a 
Song on the Radio 

I don't know what it was that was painful 
But sometimes it's there in your face 
There are times when you just look disdainful 
Of the human race 
Ah, but then on the wings of emotion 
We circle each other in flight 
Till together we roll like the ocean 
In its bed at night' 

Cause you and me baby 
I saw you there 
Straight away I knew 
There's really no hiding 
I'll tell you right now 
What we're gonna do 
We'll go collecting the days 
Putting the moments away 
You're on my mind like a 
Song on the Radio 
You're on my mind like a 
Song on the Radio
