radio on...

i was once in love with her
i swore that it would last
could not stand to hang around
when i saw that it was past

i turned my radio on
packed the car with all i owned
drove into the long dark night
said i don't know where i'm going
don't know what i'm doing
but i know i'm not going back

i got friends still hanging round
wondering what they're gunna do
they're still in the old college town
drinkin' in the old bar room

with the video on
spendin' everything they own
drinkin' in the long dark night
well i dont know where i'm going
don't know what i'm doing
but i know i'm not going back

i have a friend
who moved to california
he says i wouldn't call it home
i have a friend who moved to boston
she says i wouldn't call it home
i've been five years
in new york city
but i would not call it home

i got my radio on
cussin' everything i own
dreamin' in the long dark night
i got the radio on
