[Sequence: Radio-Tuned Guitar Intro | Verse 1 | Pre-Chorus | Chorus | Verse 2 | Chorus | Guitar Solo | Verse 3 | Bridge | Final Chorus | Outro] [Intro | Distant Radio Static] [Clean Guitar Hook Fades In] [Full Band] [Verse 1] It came through the speakers Halfway home tonight, One of those old songs You haven't heard in quite some time. I knew it from the first chord. Didn't even need the words. Funny what comes rushing back When an old song gets disturbed. Suddenly the years between us Didn't seem so far away. I turned it up And let it play. [Pre-Chorus] I wondered where you were now, What kind of life you found. And if somewhere in your world You heard that same old sound. [Chorus] Somewhere there's a radio Playing what we used to know, Three minutes from another life Coming through in stereo. Maybe you're not listening. Maybe you'll never know. But somewhere there's a radio Playing what we used to know. And for the length of one old song... I'm there with you again. [Verse 2] We wore that song completely out Back when everything was new. Every ride, every summer night, It somehow followed me and you. We thought we'd always hear it From the same side of the car. Funny how two people Can end up worlds apart. I don't miss the way it ended. I don't wish we'd stayed the same. But I smiled when that old chorus Put your face back with your name. [Pre-Chorus] Not every road needs turning back. Not every door needs closing twice. Sometimes a song is just enough To visit another life. [Chorus] Somewhere there's a radio Playing what we used to know, Three minutes from another life Coming through in stereo. Maybe you're not listening. Maybe you'll never know. But somewhere there's a radio Playing what we used to know. And for the length of one old song... The years don't feel so long. [Guitar Solo | Bright, Soaring Melodic Lead] [Verse 3] The light ahead turned green again. The traffic started moving on. I almost changed the station... But I waited for the end. There wasn't anything unfinished. Nothing left I needed said. Just a song we used to love And a road that went ahead. I wondered if you ever hear it And remember me that way... Not how we finally ended. Just one ordinary day. [Bridge | Guitars Pull Back] Maybe you're driving somewhere With somebody by your side. Maybe there's a whole new story That I wouldn't recognize. I hope it's been a good one. I hope you got where you wanted to go. And if that old song finds you... I hope you turn up the radio. Not because you miss me. Not because you want me home. Just because once... A long time ago... We loved that song. [Drums Build] [Final Chorus | Huge Open Guitars] Somewhere there's a radio Playing what we used to know! Three minutes from another life Coming back through stereo! Maybe you're out there singing. Maybe I'm singing alone. Either way there's still a little piece of us Living in that song. Somewhere there's a radio! Somewhere down the road! Playing for two people Who don't need to know. For the length of one old song... We're young again. Then the music ends... And life goes on. [Outro | Clean Guitar Hook] The next song started playing. One I'd never heard before. I left the station where it was... And kept driving toward home. [Radio Texture Fades] [End]
